All rule filters that you have created are listed here. If you don't see anything in the list, you haven't added any filters. An icon next to each filter indicates whether it is a filter that identifies good email, or a filter that identifies spam email. Here are what the icons mean:

	Identifies good messages

The name shown in the list is simply a descriptive name for the filter. It does not necessarily reflect the text pattern that the filter looks for.
