Any ideas? Any favorite products? <PLUG ALERT> Though not designed for home use (I use it at home though! ;-) ) the latest versions of NetMail/3000 via the menu interface allow users -if allowed by the administrator- to define "rules" for the processing of incoming mail messages, including searching for words in the body or various headers of mail messages, and performing various actions; including the ability to delete them. Among other things, I use this to automatically file messages from specific lists into appropriate folders; and when I'm out of the office for extended periods, sometimes add a rule to forward copies of messages that contain mention of "netmail" or "desklink" to someone else so they get handled without having to wait for me. </PLUG ALERT> As for Eudora, I believe the freeware version (the one you typically get from ISPs) does not include filtering capability. If you pay for their commercial version (something like $30 I think?) that version does supposedly include rules/filtering capability, as well as some other advanced features. -Chris Bartram
