EUDORA SPAM FILTER 06
Email List Subscriptions

 

Do you subscribe to mailing lists? I'm on a number of them. Only one filter is needed to capture all of my list messages. It searched the headers "Any Recipient" for a match to the search term( the list name or part of it's name), and sends matching mail to the inbox.

  

 

Match: Incoming and Manual
Header <Any Recipient>
Verb: matches regexp (case insensitive)
Value: LISTPROC\.(PCWORLD|WSU)
 
(change to the names of your list processors)
Actions:   Skip Rest
 (stop filtering this message and go straight to the inbox)

As shown, the search term value "LISTPROC\.(PCWORLD|WSU)" looks for "listproc." followed by either "pcworld" OR "wsu" (case is not important). For a single list processor subscription, you could simply use the Verb "Contains" and the value "listproc.pcworld", for example.
