[MlMt] Using Rules to trim a Smart mailbox

[Bart Lipman]

If I understand correctly (which is always unlikely), I don't think this 
works.  This would pick out emails which have a certain date on them, 
not all emails in a folder where the folder has a certain date as its 
name.  Or am I misinterpreting?
