I want to use a wild card like *target phrase* to catch the spam and send it to the trash. But * doesn't appear to function as a wildcard Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.recieve spam 2.right click on spam email add 3.create filter 4 select subject 5 type *target phrase* 6 save 7 run filter 8 filter doesn't move spam to trash Actual Results: 8 filter doesn't move spam to trash Expected Results: move the email containing *target phrase* to the trash

Yes, I'd also like to see a wild card/regexp feature added to filtering as it would simplify my filter rules quite a bit.

wildcard * doesn't function in mail filter as of Mozilla 1.3a Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 What I'd like to see happen: I've got email about a project: subject=[jhotdraw - Open Discussion] RE: Final problem I want to sift out all emails with the subject line containing "jhotdraw". So I create a filter for subject = *jhotdraw* Mail filter does not work
