Because OE does not filter on HTML messages or part the HTML part of a
message. Never has. It will only look at the text part. Believe me, it's
been asked for since OE5.0, I know I asked during the beta.

What OE really needs is a filter that says "Only download messages that
satisfy the following criteria".



Technically, for POP3 connections that would be impossible.
The best it could do is use the TOP 0 command (when available)
to download and inspect only an E-mail's headers.

Supposedly what you're looking for may be more feasible using IMAP
but even then it's hard to imagine how you would be able to filter on HTML
content without first downloading it. ; )
