Terry, that's it, you've done it! THANK YOU! and such a little thing too! obviously i must have originally been told to do check that ... but over time had forgotten, when i started recreating the filter for new recipients. i haven't learned to use anything in the 'actions, option, advanced' tabs, so i just stay right away from them. cheers, Charlie -- Using The Bat! v2.01.3 on Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222 A ________________________________________________________ http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
