Windows XP and OE 6.
I have made a rule requiring messages with "mcibatreasurer in the to or from
lines" to be transferred to a special folder. With most messages this is
working well but a couple recently have remained in the in-box and I expect
these are spam (if not more sinister).

Here is the message source for one of these :-

Does this explain how this is getting by ? What have I missed? What do I
need to alter in the rule for these to be transferred out of my in-box ?

Is 'Stop processing more rules' included in the rule?

Some one needs to update their OE.

The rule needs to be above other rules and contain Stop processing more
rules.

Do not reply with email

In general:

Have all rules that divert mail to folders first.

Delete it from server next.

All others last.

Make sure that every rule also has Stop processing more rules checked,
unless that option is grayed out.

The problem is that neither the "To:", nor the "From:" include the text
string, "mcibatreasurer".

MS Outlook Express does not look at the "X-Original-To:", or the
"X-Envelope-To:" lines. It does not look at any other header lines that
"From:", "To:" (and/or "Cc:"), and "Subject:".

Thanks guys for the replies, all of which added something useful.

I have now moved that rule to be first in the list; it already had the stop
processing bit there.

I am very concerned at this last point by Norman Miller. If the X-original
lines are ignored then the spammers have found an easy way round any rules
for the to or cc lines, and surely that's a near disaster.
Norman does not offer any solution.

The filtering rules in OE are weak. The only headers you can filter on
are FROM, TO, CC and SUBJECT. You cannot filter on any of the
X-headers, Received headers, etc.
