Email filters allow incoming messages to be organised automatically.
The filters should be set in the webmailer. The filters set there take effect before all other filters set (e.g. filters set up in Thunderbird, Outlook etc.).
In the following example, an email filter is set up that moves all incoming emails from the sender uni.intern@uni-bielefeld.de to the email folder "uni.intern".
Finally, confirm with OK at the top.
The webmailer's online help contains further explanations of the options and settings for email filters/inbox rules.
In the following example, an email filter is set up that deletes all incoming emails from the sender anfrage1234@mailmail.org directly and sets them as read. This means that all incoming emails from this address end up directly in the Deleted Items folder.

-> Perform all of the following actions:

2. Mark message > as read
Finally, confirm/save with OK at the top.
