Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020529 BuildID: 20020529 I am trying to filter mail based on text found in the body. The body contains: <a href = "http://www153.wiildaccess.com/"> I want to filter out any message containing a link to the SPAM beast WIILDACCESS.COM My filter is : name="wiildaccess.com" enabled="yes" type="1" action="Delete" condition="OR (body,contains,wiildaccess.com)" But it is obviously not working. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.add filter 2.wait for spam 3.hand delete message that should have been deleted by filter Actual Results: expected SPAM message is received Expected Results: message should have been deleted
This is probably relevant. The message had been moved to the _SPAM folder by another filter. Maybe filters are not handled individually; maybe if it hits one criteria, the rest are ignored...
I just checked and the WILLDACCESS filter is above the general spam collection filter. I would expect that it should have happened first, which means it did fail to find the text string imbedded in the <a> tag.
