Raymond,

This is very easy in Outlook. Just set up a message rule with the condition 
for "with specific words in the sender's address" set to "macromedia.com".

But Outlook sucks as an email client. I was forced to use it in my last job 
and replying to list mail (I'm on digest) was a nightmare. I'm back to good 
ol' Eudora now.
