Subject: Roles and Message State

I read at

  http://www.washington.edu/pine/changes/4.33-to-4.40.html

that "Rules-based filtering can now set message state (Important, Deleted,
...)". However, I can't figure out how to do this. With pine 4.44, in the
menu for editing a role, I see "Current Folder Conditions," "Current
Message Conditions," "Actions," and "Uses." None of these allows me to
specify that I'd like a message to be set "Important" (which is what I'd
like to do). I have enable-flag-cmd set (though I don't know if that makes
a difference).

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
Jessica

Umm, you're looking at the menu for editing a ROLE. You need to be
making a FILTER. The web page talks about Rules-based FILTERING.

Indeed! It works beautifully. Thanks -- and sorry I didn't investigate 
more before bugging this list.
