Whoops, I left something out. After deciding what the filter should do, 
the last decision is what action to take- where to put the message, 
whether to delete it, or mark it in some way. All the options for that 
are in the bottom box. It even allows you to create a new folder for 
messages if you don't have a suitable one yet.
