Filters

This article will guide you through creating Filters.

Watch our how-to video (hosted via our website) or follow the written instructions below.

Filters can be used to move incoming messages to certain folders. Filters can be used for several purposes.

• Moving messages addressed to an alias to a specific folder.
• Getting rid of certain spam messages if the spam filter is not detecting these messages properly.

Filters are also active if you do not use our webmail, but you are accessing your email message through an email client.

Filter priority

Incoming messages might match on multiple filters. A message could match both on the From address and the Subject. In that case, which one should go first? For this reason, filters are carried out in order (top to bottom). You can move this order. Use the arrows to the left of the filters to change the order.

1. Go to Settings in the top menu.
2. Go to Filters in the left menu.
3. Click on the arrow keys to the left of the filters to change the priority.
