As Alexander wrote, most (!) mailing lists set the Reply-to Headerto the list address. I for myself filter the Header "List-Id". You should pay attention though, that these filters are performed prior to those which filter for the senders mail-address. This way I have no trouble with private correspondence with list members. -- Regards Michael powered by The BAT! 3.0.0.8, Useless Macro Collection 1.8.845 beta, and MyMacros 1.11 with usual problems of Windows XP Pro 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Another note... maybe I got you wrong first... do you mean that the "priority" of the new filtering system (from top to bottom) is broken in v3? ie. is your "private" filter is lower in the list of filters than your "list" filter? -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de - ICQ 238153981) The spirit of one individual can supersede and dismiss the entire clockwords of history.

That doesn't need to be corrected - the filter works as expected: any message from your friend goes to the folder where you keep the conversations with him. You have to adapt your filter to a more precise match of what you want to see in your private folder and what should go to the list folder. Find out how you can identify a list message. Press F9 to see the message source with all headers, view a couple of list messages to find a unique identifier. Many mailing lists (like this one) set an additional header "Reply-To" which contains the list adress (so that any replies, like the one I'm writing to you now, go to the list instead of the original sender). Now, if I wanted to make sure I catch no "list-mail" from *you* to be sorted into my private folder, I'd set up a search string like this: sender *contains* [EMAIL PROTECTED] AND header *does not contain* reply-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thats it. If your friend is on multiple lists that you have to adapt the filter further, for example with a "block": sender *contains* [EMAIL PROTECTED] AND header *does not contain* reply-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] OR header *does not contain* reply-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] HTH -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de - ICQ 238153981) You cannot endow even the best machine with initiative; the jolliest steam-roller will not plant flowers. -- Walter Lippman Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Vs. 3 sorting problem
Hi, the new filter-sorting system makes troubles here. Example: A friend, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is member of a mailinglist. His contributions to that list are sorted in the correct listfolder. But we're writing also a lot in private, so I've a folder especially for his mails. He's writing me with the same emailaddress. Now all messages he writes to that mailinglist are also sorted in my private folder for him. If that was just one person, I could easily live with it, but I've folders for a lot of people I'm corresponding with, and they're also writing in most of my mailinglists. That means, all listcontributions from them are also sorted in their private folders here. Together it makes a bad mass. Could that please be corrected? F.i. a filterstring should just sorted once. -- Regards, Gunivortus ... Chaste makes waste. Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
