Hello. I use a lot of filters. All of these are like: "AND (from,is,adrress@domain.com) AND (subject,contains,text) AND (subject,contains,serverX)"

I would like to use a filter with a composite condition with AND and OR conditions like: "AND (from,is,nagios@domain.com) AND (subject,contains,text) AND ( (subject,contains,server1) OR (subject,contains,server2) )"

But seems it is not possible. I have edited msgFilterRules.dat file and have tried some types of these constructions in filters but none works. Is it not possible?

Thanks
