Hi all, Another problem, this time with filters. Correct me if I'm wrong but on incoming mail, filters are taken in turn. To me at least this means that if the first filter says 'dump this in a particular folder (eg PMail Discuss), that action is carried out and subsequent filters should have no effect.
In my case my list filters are first in line. The PM filter is set to: IF 'Reply to', 'Sender' or 'to' contain [EMAIL PROTECTED] then, if ANY condition is met, place the msg in the PMail discuss folder. For some reason this does not always work and clearly some of the later filters designed to dump spam in the trash are operating and some of the list stuff ends up in the trash. This problem is not confined to the PM list. The only reason I can think of is that PM checks the first condition on each filter and then moves to the filter rather than checking all conditions in the filter and then moving on to the next. I should add that later filters automatically dump any HTML stuff in the trash and others are set to deal with multipart msgs in the same way unless the sender is in the address book. I keep a small group in the address book to allow some of this, a lot of which comes from windows users. Some of this i suspect is caused by he way some listservers work. 'Sender' is sometimes the msg originator, although 'Reply to' is usually to the list address. This does seem to vary, probably depending on the software the server uses. Any ideas, comments etc? cheers Chris PM 4.1.3 OS 9.2.2
