Hi John
Thanks for your enlightening feedback !
I expected something like this !!

Well, if one is absolutely sure that its filter settings are error free
and perfect, 
then I agree fullest with you ...
... but with only one filter not working properly this feature
complicates the 
check and search of mislead e-mails ;-(

Well, I may have to live with this until I get my Lotus Notes on
Ubuntu ;--|
