I'm reasonably new to evolution and am having a problem with search
folders.

As you will have seen, my email address is zen146410 zen co uk and I
want to arrange that all messages from(to) me to(from) an address ending
with zen.co.uk (but not zen146410 zen co uk itself) are in search
folder: zen. I guessed at the the scheme rule wehre I'm searching for
`ends with':

    (and "zen.co.uk" (not "zen146410 zen co uk"))

I could find no relevant information in the Evolution manual so I'd be
very grateful for some help.

What's wrong with specifying both rules when creating the Search Folder,
making sure they are both applied? No need to write in Scheme.
The actual thing I want is:
        (SENDER ends with zen146410 zen co uk AND
         RECEIVER ends with zen.co.uk AND
         RECEIVER does not end with zen146410 zen co uk)
OR
        (RECEIVER ends with zen146410 zen co uk AND
         SENDER ends with zen.co.uk AND
         SENDER does not end with zen146410 zen co uk)
Unfortunately, the overriding way of connecting is a choice between:
'if any criteria are met' => all conditions ORed together
`if all criteria are met' => all conditions ANDed together

That's why I tried scheme.

Almost as an aside, you will notice the faulty spelling `wehre' instead
of `where' above. Can I invoke some spelling checker and, if so, how?

Edit->Check Spelling (or F7) in the Composer invokes a spell checker.
You need to have gnome-spell installed.

I've looked and don't have Edit => Check Spelling in either Evolution or
its Composer.
In case it's relevant, I have Evolution-2.6.3-6 and gnome-spell-1.0.7-1
as part of my Debian etch linux system.

I'm still open to suggestions from anybody, including you, Patrick, on
how to proceed.

Barrie.
