    Not sure where to put this since it's web related but security really...
    Basically I have a filter setup on Gmail so that if a certain person mails me it automatically deletes the mail and I never see it. Last night I got one from the filtered address though. I checked the filter settings and it's fine.
    Any ideas?

    Try filtering the domain as opposed to a specific address e.g. from:-(boards.ie)

    Um, then I'd block everyone on gmail... lol

    Ahh right, I assumed it was from a spam server. You sure you have the email address spelt right in the filter?

    Do you have any other active filters set up? Perhaps the condition set in this filter is clashing with the condition in another? i.e. delete all mail from blah@blah.com is clashing with move all mail containing blah in subject line to etc.?
