Creating Email Rules

Groupwise

Vmail

  

Consider creating rules to filter family/friends to a Family folder, and SVSU mail to an SVSU folder. Following the steps outlined below for your email system, create a folder for "SVSU or Family-Friends" and create the rule to move messages to that folder when the From field equals svsu.edu (or other addresses that are known good addresses). For example: From = 'contains' svsu.edu or From = mom@home.net. Then, periodically review what's been moved to those folders. This should allow you to manage your inbox, saving/filing just SVSU or family/friend messages into specific folders. This should also allow you to quickly review junk mail in your inbox and possibly Select All to delete/move them quickly.
