Hi Eamonn, Quite nice. But it won't cover all her eventualities. If you wrote asubject line beginning with her you would probably not have a space before.----- Original Message ----- From: <eoconnor@xxxxxxx>To: <vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, May 09, 2008 11:32 AM Subject: [vicsireland] Re: message rules Hi Paul, I'm not sure, as I don't have any rules set up. However, I imagine if you specified: space, her, space, that should do it. In other words, hit the spacebar before and after, any word you want to flag for moving. Below, I’m including details of a podcast on creating message rules, from the Blind Cool Tech site.
