Hello, Christoph --
Let us suppose that you are trying to give instructions to a human 
employee -- instead of giving those instructions to a computer. For 
example, you are giving me order for today. You order me to move E-Mail 
received  to a "special" folder, but you refuse to tell me WHICH folder 
is so very special! Now I do my best to do as you ordered.  Can you be 
justifiably angry with me if I fail to guess "correctly" which folder has 
such special E-Mai?  I say "NO!"  You simply MUST tell me (1) what 
part(s) of the incoming E-Mail is to be checked, then (2) precisely 
where I am to put it.  Therefore, I think that the answer to your 
question (exactly as it is now stated) is that your apparent notion is 
definitionally impossible!!! You may that as "No!"

Perhaps I am still so tired as to not make correct sense out of your 
message.  In case this is our experience, perhaps you would reply by 
stating more clearly what you want to do and why you want to do it.  
Then we may be able to assist with "real world" solutions instead of 
further foolishness!!!  THANK YOU for your time with my reply.
