 AA> Hmm.. First of all, I don't put quotes around my name like you do. 

According to the context-sensitive help <g>, a full name or phrase has to be
enclosed in quotes.

 AA> Then, I see that you "Selected" NETMAIL, but you ticked "Don't

Why would I want to search my netmail folder when all my netamil is readily
accessible in my netmail folder.

Both our filters achieve a similar thing but it's all down to personal
