Filter Question

[huntnyc]

Trying to make an incoming filter that places messages with certain attachments in a specific folder. I am doing this so I can manually delete these messages so their attachments will be deleted also.

My quedstion is, is there a way for me to place several file extensions in one box instead of having to use the or structure and adding several parts of the filter for each different file extension? In other words, is there a way for me to write an expression that would tell Barca to look out for .exe, .scr and other files without making separate entries in the create filter window? Hope I am clear. Thank you.

I think I tried something similar in the past and it didn't work. Only one argument per box will work.

However, If there is just a couple of attachments you want treat normally, you could do a negative filter, - send everything to the special mailbox except the ones you want to pass. That might be quicker, if that makes any sense.

Not sure if I understand that but I was just trying to place finles with various attachments in a certain folder to make sure I manually deleted the messages so that the attachments would be deleted also. That goes back to a topic on some attachments not being automatically deleted when emptying traqsh or junk folders.

You will need to either use the OR syntax or write a script.
