Hello Simon, VBG>> The address I need to filter against is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
S> As well as [EMAIL PROTECTED], choose the Alternatives tab, add a new S> set, and add [EMAIL PROTECTED]; complete with semi-colon. Set to S> filter anywhere. I just tried it and it works fine :-) Long time no combo Simon :) This worked but I was highly against it as the filtering window is non resizable, therefore always "one more filter" makes it larger and harder to manage. I think I found a bug but first I'll tell you what I did. I completely stopped filtering against an address book for bad addresses. Instead I put all bad addresses in one single line seperated by the pipe character "presence anywhere yes". This works beautifully and reduced my spam filters by several. The bug I think I found was putting anything in the filter strings or alternative box "and" trying to filter against an address book at the same time. i.e. the filter by itself "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "presence anywhere yes" worked by itself but also adding an address book to filter against too failed. I think its a bug as your idea works standalone but never with filtering against an address book in the same filter. I got it solved, thanks for the idea, I needed some sleep and another shot at the drawing board. Its all fixed now, :woot:!. Thanks Simon! -- Best regards, Victor B.
