Order of filters is very important. They execute in the order they are displayed. If you have the known rule enabled, and a member of the yahoo list mails to that list, the known rule will kick in *before* the yahoo list filter *if* the yahoo filter list comes under the known rule. Try moving the yahoo list filter above the known rule. Also look for other filters that match on address book items, and try moving them below the yahoo list filter. One of the easiest things I've found when doing filtering is to stick high use lists/contacts right at the top, saves processing power (not that it uses much), and saves miss-filtering in a lot of cases. For example, my TBUDL filter is the first on my list. I wouldn't want it to match any of my other filters, so it's the first. My second filter (IIRC, it's at work, so it's from memory) is mail from the servers I maintain, then it does some of the other lists I'm on, then spam, then some more lists (I know the order is odd here, but the second set of lists get a lot of spam), then known. Anything that hasn't matched yet is dumped into known. Hope this gives you an idea :) -- Jonathan Angliss ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60q FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
