TB 1.0 marked two messages as junk mail, but it shouldn't since the senders were
in my Personal Address Book and I've configured to don't do it in this case.

The worst thing about this is that I've totally lost these messages, TB has
completely deleted them, so I can't find them anymore. I've found this out by
luck - wich is a terrible thing to think about - while looking at Junk Mail Log.

Ok, now something more bizzarre happened:

The two senders replyied to me saying that they didn't sent any e-mails, so this
was a "false alert" from TB Junk Mail Control.

Also, now I'm in doubt if TB has ever deleted mails based on this or not.

i also noticed that the filter option "is in my adressbook" does not work in
contrast to other filter operators.
