Filtering Emails by Using Rules

Email filters help you organize incoming email messages. An email filter consists of one or several rules. By setting rules you can e.g. trigger the following actions:

The email is moved to a specific email folder.
The email is forwarded to another email address.
The email is marked as read.

In order to use email filters, proceed as follows:

Create email folders.
Create one or several rules.
Specify an order for the rules.
Set if subsequent rules are to be processed when a rule matches.

You have the following options:

Creating new rules
Adding a condition
Adding an action
Creating a new rule when moving
Creating new rules for the subject and the sender
Changing a rule
Applying a rule to existing emails

Notes:

For the following instructions and examples, it is assumed that the complete range of email filter functions is available. Depending on the configuration, some functions might not be available.
For shared accounts, you need the respective permissions to set up filter rules.
