Bob,

This is the rule that you want:

B~filename=",*\,v$s":virusbox

I made the same substitution that you did (see msg below) - but
there are two of them, plus I substituted a $ for the letter b - as
in  v$s

Your rule omitted the quotes plus a couple of other characters.  If
you are using any version of IMail prior to 6.04, substitute a  p
for the second comma.

If you are using 6.04, both commas should be periods.

Gordon
