I might get corrected on this, but I believe that the "Known" filter is just a preset way to do what was and remains possible using the pre-existing filter set. You can easily set up one or two filters to accomplish your desired result.
- Disable the Inbox-Known filter. Move the folder to the bottom of your folder tree or, if you're sure you'll never use it, delete it after confirming that all of this works. - Create a folder for Inbox-Unknown. - Set up a filter with the following: the '@' sign as the filter string, the location being Sender, and Presence being Yes. Move messages to folder Inbox-Unknown. On the Advanced tab, check "Addressee must not be listed in Address Book," and complete the subsections. Move the filter to the bottom of your filter set (for Incoming mail), which will allow any other Inbox-based filters you have in place to operate. That should result in all mail going into your Inbox as default, then filtering out to whatever folders you have in place, and finally filtering out to Inbox-Unknown all remaining mail which comes from unknown addresses. Hopefully others will confirm or correct this approach. -- JN Roberto Machorro wrote on Monday, March 25, 2002: > Hi! > I've happily upgraded to 1.60, I love the menu navigator, the HTML > mails stuff (on a personal note, I dislike HTML e-mails, but if > the sender gives me no other choice, at least it's tolerable :), > that none of my settings/prefs changed or got lost and that it seems > a little faster.
