OK, i took the plunge in "filtering" messages.
But it does not work; some i tagged as "mark as read" and others "delete".
I even closed the browser (Netscape 7.2) and re-started it.
My experience so far is that "filters" is, to be polite, fantasy.

Any ideas / suggestions as how to do it?


Click "Help" in the menu bar?

Good Luck!

I set them up via the Tools pulldown menu and selected Message Filters, and filled out the requisite info.
On shutting down the browser and re-launching it, i verified the filters existed and the "enabled" checkbox was checked.
Of what possible use is the so-called "help" file?
Almost all help files are useless to begin with, and in this case it appears i did everything OK.
If need, i could do screen shots of the filter windows and post those on ABSE.
Other suggestions?
