Step 5 Define Filter Rules:

• From: Choose if you want to filter emails from a specific email address or domain.
• Subject: Filter emails with specific words in the subject line.
• To: Filter emails addressed to a specific recipient.
• Body: Filter based on content in the email body.
• Other options: Customize by including or excluding specific headers or IP addresses.
• You can add multiple rules by selecting “Add Another Rule” to narrow your filter criteria.

Step 6 Set Filter Actions:

• Under “Actions”, choose what you want to happen when an email matches your filter rules:
• Discard: Delete the email automatically.
• Send to Folder: Move the email to a specific folder (like Spam).
• Redirect: Forward the email to another email address.
• Set Flag: Mark the email with a specific flag (e.g., “Important”).
• Move to Folder: Move it to a designated folder.
• Fail with Message: Reject the email with a custom error message.

Test Your Filter:

• You can test by sending an email that matches the criteria to see if the filter works as expected.
