(Using v3.80.06) I have a (recently-created) subfilter that is misbehaving in that it is triggered regardless of whether the condition for its parent is met. These filters relate to emails from a magazine publisher. The parent is "if sender contains any of" (the domains they send emails from) move to a certain folder. I pay for a magazine subscription for my sister and keep correspondence relating to the subscription in a subfolder called "subscription". This is only 4 or 5 emails per year and I have previously moved them manually to the "subscription" subfolder. When I received one today I decided to automate the process with a subfilter:- "If subject contains 'subscription' move to the 'subscription' subfolder. I forwarded the subscription confirmation to my sister and found her reply filtered to the "subscription" subfolder. I tested filters and this confirmed the subfilter was being triggered. I sent myself an empty email with the subject "subscription" and the subfilter was triggered by that too. Any ideas? -- Best regards, MFPA Don't learn safety rules by accident...
