Two suggestions: 1. Make Z a filter instead of a sub-filter. If you want Z to only trigger if X or Y is true, you could set a "user parameter" as an action of both X and Y and make Z filter on that user parameter as well as the Z header/text. or 2. Put a subfilter Z under Y as well, the same as the one under X. 2. is simpler to set up but 1. means if you want to change the actions of the Z filter in the future you only need to change one filter. -- Best regards, MFPA COMMITTEE: A body that keeps minutes and wastes hours.
