Thunderbird email "rules"?

I use TB 1.0 as my email client. I migrated to it from OE. A feature
of OE I miss is what they called "message rules". These "rules" wold
assign any email from a particular sender to an email folder setup for
his messages. Is there anyway to setup a similar feature under TB?

Tools - Message Filters.

Geez, try clicking a little bit before you give up!

In the 60's, people took acid to make the world appear weird. Now the
world is weird and people take Prozac to make it appear normal.

You can use Message Filters, or better yet, I'd suggest trying the
"Saved Search Folder" function. That won't move the messages, but it
will display all the messages from a particular user in a specific
folder. Just type in what you want to search for, then save the search
with the drop-down box.

Ed, I am a retired computer programmer. I find my age of 62 often
makes me feel not quite as sharp as I once was when I'd write
assembler language programs for a IBM mainframe, but I was never
unkind to persons, even if their actions seemed not too bright to me.
Humility was a trait that took me longer to master the IBM 370
assembler. Should you try to master it too?
