Both subject/author parameters in one kill filter

I want to create a kill filter that would filter out anything that doesn't pertain to .mp3 files, but does not touch any of my posts. Would the following be correct:

Subject contains: .mp3|.sfv|.m3u|.nfo (Boolean, all, select)
Author contains: bruce73 (Boolean, all, extract)

If "extract" implies "select", is the selection process cumulative? I hope this makes sense. :?

so you need:

subject contains mp3... select
author contains bruce73 apply to unselected extract

Thanks, Alex. But wouldn't applying the "author" parameter to "all" rather than the "unselected" amount to the same thing, albeit redundant?

no, applying to all would neutralize the first condition, the result would be only your posts.

OK, I understand it now, thanks.
