your proposal for filtering will still suffer from the problems I mentioned earler. you need to actually filter the message body itself - not just the header information in order for the filter to work appropriately. In my case - filtering anything with the word baptista - both header and message body will work. because baptista is a unique name. However if you filter the message body in jeff williams case - you'll have less then spectacular results. anytime someone mentions the common english name williams the message will be dumped. as i said before - the results are confusion. regards joe On Thu, 2 Aug 2001, Simon Allard wrote:

Might want to make a little change. This way you don't see peoples replys to their comments. Wipe their existance out for good.
