Thanks Steve...

I've downloaded popfile and it seems to be the type of program I'm
after...we'll see in a couple of days :-)

I have a question on this - say I use only 2 filters like you. Once
popfile allows in all my mail, is there any way to then filter that
mail into the appropriate folders other than manually applying all
filters to my inbox? 

Thanks,

Andrew.
