How to Edit "User Level Email Filter" in cPanel?  Print this Article

Overview:

This interface allows you to filter the email for each email account in your domain.

An email filter allows you to set a rule for incoming messages (for example, a message from desired sender). If a message matches that rule, then the system can automatically perform an action on that message (for example, deleting the message).

Important:

We strongly recommend that you use multiple, simple filters instead of a single large filter. Exim, the server’s mail transfer agent, handles many small rules more efficiently than a single large rule.

Current Filters

To list an email account’s filters, click Manage Filters in the row of the appropriate email account. The Current Filters table lists all of the filters for the selected email account.

Edit a filter

To edit an existing filter, perform the following steps:

  1. Click Edit next to the appropriate filter name.

  2. Make the desired changes to the filter.

  3. Click Save.
