Are you referring to gmane or email? I am referring to newgroup headers, not email headers. In SeaMonkey 1.1.14 (that you are using), you can only add custom filters for email, not for newsgroups. In 2.0a3pre (which I am using/testing) you can add custom filters for both. Also, header filters cannot contain the ':' and if you try to add as such you'll receive: "The header you entered contains an invalid character, such as ':', a non-printable character, a non-ascii character, or an eight bit ascii character. Please remove the invalid character and try again." You can of course put that in the data field that you are looking for in the header, but not in the header definition field. I suppose that I can ask on the SeaMonkey developer group, but the answer will most likely be that the issue is on the OOo side as it issues two identical headers rather than one. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
