hello, my first obvious question would be?
are you sure your Outlook Express window is maximized?

and here are some steps for creating an OE filter.

This example will be for making a filter for Jawslist .

First make a folder named jawslist .

To do so press control shift E, type jawslist , then tab and arrow up to 
local

folders, then hit enter.



Press alt T, then R to take you to message rules

Enter on mail.

Tab over to New and press the space bar.

Arrow down until you hear where the subject line contains specific words

and press the space bar.

Tab once to Actions list.  You will hear "Move it to the specified folder."

Again, press the space bar.

Tab once to the rules description dialog and down arrow one time.

You will hear where the subject line contains specific words.

Hit enter.

Type in Jawslist .

Tab one time to Add and press enter.

Now tab until you hear OK and press enter.



You will be back at the rules description dialog.

Now down arrow two times and you will hear specified.

Hit enter.

Now you will up or down arrow until you hear the name of your folder spoken

e.g.  Jawslist .

Tab over to Ok and hit enter.

Now tab once and give the rule a name such as Jawslist .

Now tab to ok and hit enter.
