I can't imagine why anyone would NOT have it running. If the notion that a) it's unusual to have access to set up server side filtering I'd be surprised. The notion that it somehow requires "power users" to figure out how to use it seems far fetched. Server side filtering at fastmail is much less complicated than using theBat's filters. That's what I think. -- Dwight A.
