Hi,
i used the following rule:
:0
* ^Subject[: ] ADV*
$MUELL
to move marked SPAM to my trash folder ($MUELL).
I thought that every mail, having a subject
starting with ADV, would be moved to the trash.
Unfortunately, mails with Subject like 'ADMIN'
are trashed to :-(
'*' in regular expressions means: zero or more of the previous
character or group. So, ADV* matches subject lines with AD, ADV, ADVV ...
It should work as intended if you leave out the asterisk.
Also, the condition line should be
* ^Subject:[ ]*ADV
with a space and a tab between the brackets.
Third, for file delivery you also need a local lockfile, ie. a colon
after the "0".

* ^Subject:[ ]*ADV
