You can use the References: and In-Reply-To: fields to axe just the part of the thread initiated by a certain condition. You just need the Message-Id of the post which you store in a list, which will expire after a month, and which your script can compare References or In-Reply-To against. This

Hi. I use global rules to filter e-mails. I sign in to www.icloud.com, put in my ID etc, press the mail button, find theget action button and then there are various tabs. One is the rule tab. Then there are certain options as to what you want to do. So anyone you don't want to see can go to

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 That's going to be tricky because lets say someone starts a thread named ITunes and you say "Screw ITunes and the flame wars, I don't care." You'll miss that thread. I recommend adding a thread-ID to a list (check out something like redis), then settin

It’s best to filter server-side if you have that option. Filtering on the Mac would make running OS X mail a requirement just to get mail filtered, plus your iPhone would still be notified of new mail even if opening Mail then showed it to have been moved/deleted. How you filter is down to your

Thanks, Jim. Yes, I want to set up rules to filter out given senders. But I didn't read carefully enough to see that you were using a Mac, rather than a phone. I was hoping there was a way to do it on the phone. But I guess I will have to dig into the Mac and see how it works there, and hope tha

It is working for me at the moment. And, yes the rules are different. I couldn't decide whether to use the "sender" or from" option. Finally went with from and then the last part of the email just in case they had other emails with different letters or whatever. It does seem to be working and i

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Have you been able to verify this works? If so I'm going to set this up. Sometimes the "from" field is a bit weird on lists. My rules are a bit different because I run my own server, but I have the bonus of filtering server-side, so that nothing hits m

Hi all! I've decided to create a rule to filter out messages on this list to remove unwanted messages from certain people. I am having some difficulty with the rules. My rule is not working properly. It is a simple rule that says if message is from "specific person" then delete the message.
