I also use Eudora Pro (which, by the way, seems to have become more
unstable with later releases; it often crashes or loses menu items). When
you create a filter to dump emails, you can specify that the subject
"contains" certain words. It doesn't have to exactly match the entire
subject of the incoming email.
