User Level Filtering  Artikel drucken

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.

Create a filter

To create a new filter, perform the following steps:

  1. In the Filters by Users table, click Manage Filters for the appropriate email account.

    Note:
    If you access this interface from cPanel’s Webmail interface, proceed to step 2.

     

  2. Click Create a New Filter.

  3. Enter a name for the filter in the Filter Name text box.

  4. Configure your filter’s rules and actions.

    Note:
    For detailed information on how to configure your filter, read our How to Configure Email Filters article.

     

  5. Click Create.
