If you're submitting a patch to implement this, send it to ethereal-dev.
If you're submitting a request that somebody *else* implement it, send it
to ethereal-users.

You mean like typing "smtp" into the filter box and pressing the
"Enter"/"Return" key, to filter the display so that it shows only the SMTP
packets in the capture?

You mean like typing "!http and !netbios and !dhcp" into the filter box
and pressing the "Enter"/"Return" key, to filter the display so that it
shows only packets that are neither HTTP, NetBIOS frame (NBF), or DHCP?

You mean like adding a color filter with the filter string "smtp" and blue
selected as the color, so that SMTP packets are shown in blue in the
packet list?
