My gut feeling is that if AND / OR tests come about, they would probably be features 
for the Pro version.

True...but that only works for Pro licenses (for test filtering), which
those on Standard can't use.  Also, this sort of group weighting would be
much more efficient than text matching.

Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Feature request: COMBO tests


My feeling is since it can be done to some extent using testsfailed filters,
I'd rather see development on things we can't do. The NOTCONTAINS arguement
has simplified these COMBO filters so most only take one filter to perform.

I know Scott's out (hope he's enjoying it!), but wanted to post this one
while I was thinking about it.

I would like to be able to group tests together and give a weight to the
group rather than the individual tests.  That way if one or multiple tests
fail, only one weight is added.

This would give us a lot more flexibility in the weighting scheme and would
address such issues as mailers listed on multiple DUL lists, or mailers that
are blacklisted on multiple lists.

We then start to structure weighting more around the class of test rather
than the quality of individual tests, allowing lots of BLs to be used that
may contain duplicates, but have a few listings that others don't, without
pushing the weight up further than it should.

I realize others have found a workaround for the multiple DUL issue by using
custom filters, but I believe this would give much more overall flexibility.

Note that it also implies AND and OR functionality: AND with weight
aggregation, and OR with tests within a group.

I realize this is a major change, but believe it would be well worth it.

Thoughts?

Darin.
