You can say that again.

I run the script after downloading mail, it is not quick but is in between
two other slow events so does not seem too bad. The preceding act of going
offline seems to take longer as does the normal filtering that follows.
Only messages that are both New and from Egroups are tested - which of
course is most of mine !

If you want a copy of the script mail me privately. It's based on one from
the YAM mailing list.

Regards,

Bill.
