Content Filtering in SmarterMail

Content filtering is a feature that automatically scans the content of incoming mail then gives instruction to that mail based on predefined conditions that the user set up in the inbox settings. These filters can be set up to scan virtually every aspect of incoming mail (i.e., sender's address, key words in the body text, if there are any attachments, etc), making them a highly valuable tool for anyone looking to increase the organization, optimization, and security of their inbox. Below are steps for setting up content filters in SmarterMail:

1) Sign into your SmarterMail account and navigate to the Settings.

2) Select Content Filtering then click New.

3) Enter a name for the filter.

4) Using the Match Type dropdown, select the condition match criteria that best fits your needs.

5) Select New Condition. Using the Condition Type dropdown, select the rule you would like to use then set the rule parameters to match your needs.

6) Select New Action. Using the Select Action dropdown, select the action you want to occur when the condition(s) set above have been met.

7) Once you are done adding conditions and actions to the filter, click Save. Your newly created content filter should now be displayed and enabled.
