 Well, Sender makes the thing minorly faster I assume (don't know)

 Anyway, the filter that marks my messages to a light gray is like this
 (incoming mail, at top of list, continue processing with other filters
 option checked)

 String Location  Presence
 jast|justinsenderYes
 @zz-s.de|@zno.de   senderYes

 This gets all mails with my different identities at the two domains I use,
 excluding the possibility of other Justins or people at my domains getting
 marked as well.

I would use "kludges"; in fact I always do, instaed of sender or
recipient. Not only does this cover both, it also avoids the question
of "equals" versus "contains".

Re[2]: How to autocolor certain Messages

Hello TBUDLers,

This color change test done on a messages filtered to the TBUDL
folder on arrival didn't work.

I will try to make anything from myself turn a very pale shade of
yellow on arrival. I used my user name was the rule as the sender,
with no alternative. This time I'm duplicating that using the same
thing as an alternative. So this is a test, for any message I post
to TBUDL.

The other rule just worked perfectly on the main account for a
message directed directly to me (not a list), which is what I
wanted.

Douglas

Relative to filtering to automatically add color, I assume that
someone doing this would want to set off certain messages BEFORE
reading them, rather than after - so they will attract his / her
attention. I'm going to try making one.

This seems straightforward enough: Anything from or to me (not to a
list) is going to turn a very pale shade of yellow on arrival. My
user name was the rule as the sender, and my user name as recipient
was an alternative. Then I redirected one of my messages to myself
via the bcc.

It worked fine EXCEPT - it didn't work until it was marked as read.
This is anomalous behavior. It was an incoming mail filter. So: I
opened the filter and added the action: Mark as read.

That did it.

You must understand, that while The Bat! may be the best mailer
around, it's also obligatorily a little batty - but that's only
natural.

This test was not done on a folder messages are filtered to, but
rather on an inbox. I'll make another one for this message, which
will filter into the TBUDL folder on arrival.

Douglas

How to autocolor certain Messages

[Alexander A. Gomanyuk]

Hello Batmans,

  I'm about Group Color features...
  What type of filter i should use to color specific messages (for
  example from Ali in The Bat ! list) ?

  The matter is that the filter, moving The Bat List messages from
  Inbox to The Bat! folder works at first... Well... So should i use
  "Read Messages" filter with Group Color Option after that for The Bat! folder ?

  In my case it doesn't work.
