I use Outlook 2003.  It is easier to just sort by subject, select the first
message, hit shift and select the last message on the subject, then press
delete and confirm - instead of creating a rule. 

And if I wear out my delete key, I will just replace it.  Keyboards are
cheap.

Just to keep it on the ICOM subject, I am cleaning the shack while I listen
to an AM-BCB station on my $300 IC-R9000 that I have a total of $250 in
repair parts into.  Other than a few scratches in the top cover, it is
great.  I like it so much I am thinking of taking it to Sierra Vista AZ next
weekend.  (To listen to in the motel room, NOT SELL!).  They have a hamfest
on Saturday, and a dog show on Sunday.  Life just doesn't get any better
than that!  Something for both of us...  My little (170 pound) Texas
Chihuahua will come along of course.

BTW, if anyone is interested... I am using a C.Crane Twin Coil Ferrite
antenna, and I love it!  I am also running it through the W8ZR
multi-controller.  It allows two antennas to be connected to eight receivers
with either 0-dB loss or 6-dB gain and receiver selection/muting.
