Search entire message text in the rule selection.

When I want to add a new entry to a rule I have only a few options as to where Hmail looks for the offending text. Is it possible to search the whole .eml source instead of making multiple entries to the rule. I know there is a "custom header field" box but how do I tell it to search everything.

Custom header rule only checks the message headers

You can't search full email text using rules

Okay. Thank you.

In this case, can someone explain - what gives the "BODY" tag in the rules?

[mattg]

'Body' is plain text, and may or may not, include the contents of the email

Some emails are 'HTML text'

But yes, that is a good find.
I missed that

U Sure?

Body - The Body of the email message. This includes both the plain text body and the HTML body.

As listed in docs here

Well there you go

rules work with body too, for sure.
however i'm not sure if HMS first decodes base64 and then performs a search, like SA or ASSP do it. i think not.
so only text and/or some HTML bodies are good for rules.
depending on traffic volume and average message size it may not be wise to use body rules though.
