Can anyone please give me some simple to follow instructions on how to make a “filter” or rule or whatever it is called to direct mail into a designated folder based on criteria I select. For example, I notice that I get a lot of phishing attempts from various senders all with email addresses containing @cobolly. I would like to direct all mail from any sender with @cobolly in the “from” to the trash or to be permanently deleted.
I really like eM Client. Switched from Thunderbird and like the improvement but I must say that the filters in T-bird were logical and easy to use.
But is it from an UX perspective convenient? When I have already selected the e-mail from the inbox list its more intuitive to do tasks for that specific e-mail amongst others creating a rule through the right-click dialog.
I never thought of going to the sender in the e-mail box and create the rule from there. But perhaps that is my way of thinking.
If you want to create a Rule based on a sender, it makes sense to right-click on the sender. Otherwise right-clicking on the conversation is something else and you are offered contextual options for that.
