Description
You can use the mail filter to filter mails based on information in various fields. One of the fields, which you can use to filter the mails, is Sender Field. The sender field in a mail contains the name of the sender. You can specify the filter string to be used and the criteria for filtering the messages using this field.
How To Use
You can define a filter string and choose the option through which the filter string would be used on sender field. You need to select the options from the drop down list next to the 'Select Field'. The different filter options you can choose from are
'Contains': When you choose contains option, the filtering process checks the 'Sender field' of the email to see if any part of the field contains the filter string mentioned in the Phrase Text Box. If there is a match, the filter will allow the mail to pass to the next filter check.
'Does not Contain': When you choose this option, the filtering process checks and only allows those mails to pass the filter, which does not contain the filter phrase in any part of the 'Sender field'.
'Begins With': The filter checks if the starting of the 'Sender Field' contains the filter phrase from the textbox. If the match happens, the filter passes the email for the next filter.
'Ends With': When you check this option, the filter checks if the end of the 'Sender field' contains the filter phrase.
Enter the text or phrase you wish to filter in the Phrase Text box next to the options drop down list.
