    Hello Alan,

    Tuesday January 11 2022 23:03, you wrote to Daryl Stout:

    It doesn't work for user 0 though, so I press enter/next a lot.

    So the sysop's mail cannot be filtered? I can see the reasoning for that but that also defeats the use of a twit filter/killfile.

    Glad to see you in here!

    That seems to be the case. Filters I enter don't work for me although I see nothing in the docs about it.

    I have another account on the BBS so I can check how things work/look for an everyday user and the filter works as expected.

    I can see the reasoning for that but that also defeats the use of a twit filter/killfile.

    Only for my own regular account, user 0. It seems the sysop must read everything!
