« setting up spam filtering »
The following steps describe how to create a filter which captures incoming mail marked as spam, moving it from your primary INBOX to a quarantined folder which you create.
Ready to begin? Lets go:
- First, create a folder where potential spam e-mails should be filed:
- Login to your burlymail.net e-mail account.
- Click the Folders link, found in the main menu near the top of the page.
- Provide a name for the spam quarantine folder. When ready, click the Create button.
- Login to your burlymail.net e-mail account.
Next, we will create a new mail filter which moves the suspected spam message to the quarantine location:
- Click the Options link found in the main menu near the top of the page.
- Click the Message Filters link, located near the bottom-right corner of the resulting page.
- On the next page, click the New link to define a new filter rule, providing these values as input:
Match: Subject
Once ready, click the Submit button to add the new filter rule.
Contains: [SPAM]
Move to: Spam
- Click the Options link found in the main menu near the top of the page.
All done! From now on, incoming mail which has been marked as spam will be filed away.
Be sure to check the Spam folder we just created, and delete its contents from time to time.
