How to setup custom email filters

With Private Email you can have all or specific incoming emails automatically forwarded to another address or folder.

To set up your custom rule, follow the steps below:

1. Log in your Webmail

2. Click on Gear icon > Settings

3. Check mark Advanced Settings box > select Mail Filter > Add new rule

4. In Create new rule window, you may enter the following information and conditions for the new rule:

Rule Name – the name of your redirect

Condition – choose the condition to limit the rule for the specific messages, so the emails are forwarded only if the condition matches – Sender, Recipient, Email size, Topic, etc.

Choose the matching type and enter the mail filter parameter, for instance, email address you need to forward the emails from.

We recommend choosing the Contains option, if you want to make the rule less strict (all emails that come from “[email protected]” address or contain it in the from field anyhow are included)

Now you can choose the action that the server performs whenever the condition is met.

NOTE: it is possible to add several actions to the same rule

Select the action to be performed by mail system.
You can forward the email to another address, or move it to some specific folder, reject, mark as spam, etc.

NOTE: do not forget to add Keep action if you want to keep the copy of the received message in the email account. You can disregard it if you want to have the forwarding only, without saving the copy of the message.

NOTE 2: make sure you check Process Subsequent Rules option. Otherwise, this rule will be the last one to execute and other filters in the list will not be processed
