You can add custom test rules to your user_prefs file in your home directory if you wish. >>> If that's true, custom ruleset may affect others (never though that) AND is it possible to add those in my user_prefs. If I understand correctly, additions to my user_prefs are safe to others (I will not spoil anybody but me in worst case) and all I need to do is cut and paste from .cf files to user_prefs file (is that correct or am I dreaming too much?) In case I want to add 3 rules just paste all that text in there and that's enough? Nigel Frankcom wrote: > > On Thu, 01 Feb 2007 18:34:09 -0500, "Daryl C. W.
