So you mean you set your filter up like this:
String Location Presence
(SA)Dues Subject Yes
RE: Subject No
and it doesn't work, right? That's strange, for it looks pretty
logical to me. Do you use regular expression? Do you have other
conditions (perhaps to identify a particular mailing list)?

That's strange. I just set up a filter as I described above and sent
myself a message with the subject line you described, and it worked.

(speechless)
You may want to try Marck's suggestion: delete the filter and start
