The available tests depend on the used script driver.

When adding / editing a new filter, it is possible to specify Contains 
and Doesn't contain rules.



In certain cases, it is useful to be able to specify a rule where a 
field equals a value, instead of simply containing it.



Real-life example:

- I subscribe to a list called "Some List".

- The mailing list comes through with a subject of Some List.

- I also sometimes receive messages from business partners, with 
subjects such as "Saw this on Some List...".

- If I set up a rule that moves "Some List" messages to my some-list 
folder, I have no way to specify that I only want to match the exact 
subject "Some List", except for the current "Contains" rule.

- Therefore the messages from my business partners also get included 
in the filter.
