Create 3 filters: (i.e. named as: filter1, filter2 and filter3)

1.
Name (unique): filter1
predicate: Subject contains: .par|.par2|.rar|.jpg|.nfo|.sfv|.zip|.few other

2.
Name (unique): filter2
predicate: Lines: 500-

3.
Name (unique): filter3
predicate: Composite: filter1&filter2

Now when applying filter3 you see what you want, a combination of filter1 and filter2. This filter doesn't delete headers but hides them.

To use it as a kill filter adding Negation checkmark at the third filter would probably be enough (haven't tested this yet).

yes, in this scenario you need to add negation (unlike newspro kill filters you tell ue what headers you want to kill since it looks more logical).

also it is a good idea to give filters meaningful names, you can put in the name everything (maybe apart from double quote if you use it as a part of a composite filter).

if the name contains & | ^ etc. and you use the filter in composite filter you need to put the name in double quotes like in example in UE.txt
