[muglo] Re: Warning re AppleMail!

Sorry to hear of your experience but I have used Mail exclusively for 
over two years and can't say that I experienced problems similar to 
yours.  I use quite a few filters, for junk, to sort mail eg. personal, 
business, mailing lists etc. and occasionally something ends up in an 
unexpected folder but it has more to do with how the rule was set up 
than the way the program executes the rule.
