Eudora User Manual Filtering Messages

Use the match type (“contains” is the default) drop-down menu to control how the header item is matched with the text string in the text field. The match options are as follows:

contains or doesn’t contain— If the specified header item contains or does not contain the text string, filter the message. It allows other text to surround the text string.

is or is not— If the specified header item is or is not an exact match of the text string, filter the message.

starts with or ends with— If the specified header item starts with or ends with the text string, filter the message. The starts with item refers to the first non-whitespace character after the colon, so any spaces after the colon are ignored.

appears or doesn’t appear— If the header item appears or does not appear in the message, filter the message (the text field is ignored). This is useful for filtering messages based only on the types of fields they contain. For example, some messages contain a Reply-To: header, some don’t.

intersects nickname— If the text string is included in a nickname, whether it is a full address or a nickname within the nickname, filter the message.

matches regexp (case sensitive)— If the specific item matches the regular expressions characters with case sensitivity, filter those messages.

Note. Regular Expressions is an advanced and complex method of searching for text.

Regular Expression is a search string that uses special characters to match text charac- ters. For example, if you are filtering messages sent to you by two people, choose From in the first drop-down options list, then choose matches regexp. Then type their usernames between parentheses separated by a vertical slash, for example (bobclark)(janedoe)in the text box. Eudora searches and displays all messages from these two people. For more information on regular expressions, refer to the readme.txt file in your Eudora folder or click on the following Web site URL

matches regexp— If the specific item matches the regular expressions characters, filter those messages.

Enter text in the text field boxes to specify the text strings that the filter is searching for.

Important. It is recommended that the contents of the text boxes be kept as specific and brief as possible. The greater the complexity, the less likelihood of a match.

Be sure not to enter a header label in the text box as part of the text string. For example, to filter all messages from Justine, do not enter “From: Justine” in the text box. Rather, select “From:” in the Header field, and enter simply “Justine” in the text box.

Use the conjunction drop-down menu (“ignore” is the default) to link the two terms. The conjunction options are as follows:

ignore— Ignore the second term. If the message matches the first term, filter the message.

and— If the message matches both the first and second terms (but not just one alone), filter it.

or— If the message matches either term (or both), filter it.
