filter not working

[bagrub]

I have set up my filters -- very simple x-spamlevel - ****** to ve sent to another folder for less stringent review

1)filtering icon does not appear on inbox page

2) filtering must be done manually in the held box--- and when done it only works 30% of the time

3) I have all boxed marked in filtering option -- filter inbox--- filter upon logon

but it does not automatically filter

any help would be apprecaitted

filtering must be done manually in the held box

I haven't figured this out at all.

Have you read any of the existing FAQ entries.

Have you any of the previous discussions on others with filtering issues?

filtering icon does not appear on inbox page

If you believe it should be there, if you believe you have filtering selected, if you believe that rules are in place, etc., etc., etc. than this would appear that what you believe isn't true .... Follow one of the links at the top of the page to the SpamCop FAQ and see if your answer isn't already there.

Filter Options

1> Apply filter rules upon logging on?

2> Apply filter rules whenever INBOX is displayed?

3> Allow filter rules to be applied in any mailbox?

4> Show the filter icon on the menubar?

1) You are correct, filtering the Inbox is controlled by 1> and 2>.

2) Filtering in any other folder is a manual option. My filters work 100% of the time when they match exactly. They are case sensitive, so abc, Abc, and ABC are 3 different matches.

3) Are you saying that your Inbox is NOT being filtered at all? If another folder, see my answer to 2).

Moderator action: Fixed "quoting" in this post .. deleted a previous post by the same user that only contained quoted material of "my" last post .... gave user time to edit it, but saw that this user had "left the builfing" .... so delete was the best seen option.

Sorry, Webmail's filtering is not automatic enough to do what you want to do. You have to click the little funnel-shaped "Apply Filters on Held Mail" Filter Icon while viewing your Held Mail mailbox/Folder each and every time you want to apply your Filters to your Held Mail mailbox/Folder.

Also, please review the Help and practice your quoting in the Testing Forum. Thanks!
