Here's the scenario. I get forwarded emails from my brother. Some are amusing. Many are not. The ones that are not, are originated by...let's say...Mr. X. I want to create a filter that deletes any forwarded mail that includes Mr. X in the "original sender" line, but I don't see that option in Mail's filters. I don't want to filter every forward from my brother. I tried filtering for Mr. X in the "message content contains" menus, but that didn't do it.
Please don't bother with "ask your brother to stop forwarding mail from Mr. X", because it's not that important. Besides, I'm sure he just gets them and hits the Forward button, based on the long list of other recipients I see. By his own admission, he's not terribly computer literate.
Any ideas for filtering criteria that might do the trick?
