Thanks for clarifying that too. M> Where? In "Selective download" filters? I don't really understand M> how you have done that. What I meant to say is that many of my messages come through one of the accounts (Account A) and are filtered through to folders in other accounts. Fine. These messages coming through Account A are also duplicated to another account inbox (Account X). Account X shares the same pop account with Account A, which I guess is why this occurs. Account X uses different From and Reply To addresses for a separate business. Now I've set up a filter that trashes all the dupes except those addressed to the business. Is this the most efficient way to do this? Am I clear as mud? M> It's hard to tell what you are trying to achieve. Just trying to navigate the land of the filters successfully, Marck. :-) There seems to be something about it I just can't grasp easily. Sorry to be so slow. These early filter difficulties are similar to ones I had in a different mail program (which also promised an excellent filter system) which was one of the reasons I abandoned it.
