I accidentally created an iterative loop using a forwarding Filter and bcc the sender. This resulted in me recieving multiple copies of e-mails each with subject beginning Fwd: Fwd: So I tried to clean them up by QuickFiltering for Fwd: Fwd: and I got a lot of hits for Fwd: alone. Please spare me from search engines based upon the matronly idea that I couldn't possibly know what I want to search for. -Does Quick filter support phrase search?
