It would be helpful if the e-mail could also
be filtered just using the command line interface too.
That point and click interface inside filter.exe alternatively should come up with a panel
that shows the rule as it was created on a single line or a couple of lines
in text form and asks the user to confirm this is all of the rule the user wants
to save.
The filter.exe program unlike dBase doesn't show the
command as it's being built at the bottom of the screen and
doesn't show what keys to hit once a selection is made at the bottom of
the screen either.
One thing that would be helpful for filter.exe would be a beep if a user hit an
incorrect key and perhaps a boop if what the user did on a screen was
accepted as an entry. At least that way the users could tell how they were
doing as they went along.
