How are Filters triggered ?
Posted: Fri Dec 28, 2012 1:30 pm
I had an INITIALLY sucessful first experience with a REGEX spam filter. Using Excel, I created a large REGEX filter, and HAPPILY, if performed perfectly on the first try, clearly marking a nukber of emails, as I specified in the filter design.
Howwver, being my first filter, I needed to make a few changes, so I redefined the filter. SURPRISE -- I found that my filter maked NOTHING. I then entered a really simple REGEX filter (just one item), and that filter also marked NOTHING.
I closed Mailwasher Pro, then restarted it, but AGAIN -- the REGEX filter marked nothing.
MY QUESTIONS --
1. Under what conditions doesdoes Mailwasher trigger its filters?
2. Is ther any way for me to manualy trigger a REGEX filter? If YES, that can I trigger all of them at once, or one at a time.
FINALLY -- The REGEX filter is a fabulous Mailwasher tool. As soon as I master how to use them Mailwasher willbe more valuable than ever. REGEX is my solution to junk and spam mail.
