Hi All,

Question for people. (My brain is fried with frustration of waiting for my :apple: Watch) so need to ask you all...

Is there a way to set up rules within the mail app? For example, automatically sending mail from an individual or domain to a sub mailbox? I have sub mailboxes, and can move mail manually, just wondering if there is any way to set up rule(s) so that it could be done automatically.

Thanks in advance!
 
Usually you would do it on the server end of whatever mail service you are using. So if it's a Google or a Yahoo! Mail account or an iCloud or Exchange account you'd usually log into the web version of it and configure rules/filters there.

using me.com so iCloud.

Thanks for the advice! went to www.icloud.com and found it :)
 
i think you can also do it from the native os x mail app too if im not mistaken. but as you found out, icloud.com is where i initially did my icloud mailbox set up with forwarding.
