Yes, they are acted on sequentially in the order they appear in your rules list...and no, they are not case sensitive..and the last step of the rules wizard gives you an option to stop processing other rules, so if you don't want other rules applied to these messages AFTER your rule is applied, just check that option. We have a files section for this group where you can upload the code...see the footer of all of these emails for info on how to join if you want to upload/download files. Yes..the footers in these emails actually tell you stuff...LOL Linda F.

I've been all over the internet and collected some bits and pieces of code that I can maybe use to alter the body of an incoming mail to show plain text. If anyone wants a copy of it just let me know because I've put the whole lot in a txt file. I can either post it as a message or upload it to somewhere. Anyway... My plan at the moment ... listen carefully, I will only say this once... For you allo allo fans... is to set up the code to put a copy of the text as text above the html. This means that I get both... I hope. Then, again hopefully, The rules can pick out the text and do their business. So can anyone tell me if the rules are acted upon sequentially please and are they case sensitive?
