I have tried to use the filter programme in Eudora, but so far I haven't managed to get it to work. Although this message from my friends had a line in it, it came to my inbox, and not into the trash box in the way I had set the filter. Any advice?

Please make sure that it looks exactly like this.

Re: Spamfilter in Eudora does not work

I also found the recommended configuration did not work in my Eudora 5.2 even though I copied and pasted "X-Spam-Status: Yes", "X-Spam-Flag: YES " and "X-Spam-Level: *****" each in turn.

I wondered whether it was because Eudora couldn't cope with spaces, so I tried "YES" as a condition and it seemed to work OK, until I realised that "YES" was a substring of "BAYES..." , giving rise to false positives.

I have now set Any Header contains ***** and this seems to do the job.
