Gmail filter

You need to change gmail on web from standard view to basic html view. Here is 
a link to a how to do that 
http://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/24763/how-can-i-convert-gmail-from-standard-view-to-basic-html-view



If you want to filter an email list the senders email address is the email list 
address like macvisionaries@googlegroups.com The actual email list email 
address. Not Yoey, Anna or Smith`s email address.



You may have to make a label first. Be sure to type in the correct email adress 
when making a filter. Try with only the senders email address first in the "to" 
field and nothing else in topic, message text field etc. Only the senders email 
adress in the "to" field. Then, you are minimizing the potential errors because 
you have only enterd the email adress, there must be wrong email address. Of 
course, the label name and skip inbox must be chosen. Take a look at step 15. 
below. If you have many messages below in that step, you are doing right, if 
not, there must be a miss spelled email address. Though i am a little bit 
confused about this guides step 4. although i write it. Long time since i 
filterd anything to a label. The reason you have to enter senders email adress 
in the "to" field is: Email list`s don`t always show their email address in the 
"from" field, but shows their email address in the "to" field. The Gmail filter 
have to see the correct address. If there is an incorrect address in the "from" 
field the Gmail filter reads wrong address. So you have to tell the filter to 
read from the "to" field where the email list`s have their correct address.   



Copyic from another message:

÷÷

Other may fill in and add details or correct. No problem.



You may place a check mark in step 15. it will filter the most of your emails 
already stored, but it may take several days to filter. That scared me first 
time from check mark this because it looked scarying wtih so many emails 
falling down from the net like an never ending river.



In my opinion a filter option is  a great tool to keep order in our inbox. 
Noticed that some have 3000 - 4000 emails after 3 days without checking the 
email. I like many others are using gmail. A very good email client. Accesible. 
Filtering using Label and filter. You can use the Mail account built in IOS 
with gmail inside Mail IOS. If you make a new Label or a Map(this is the same 
i.e..Label is an map in your mailbox list under inbox, sent, deleted etc). 



If you don't have an gmail account you ca register one first on google.com 
Don't remember exactly how, but it is pretty straight forward and not 
dangerous. Chose IMAP if it is an option between IMAP or POP. IMAP synchronize 
email between iPhone, iPod, Mac and iPad. If you want to use the built in Mail 
program in IOS you register first on google.com then go to Settings > Mail > 
add Account. Find gmail in the list.. If memory serves, you only have to set 
username and password inside the built in IOS MAIL IF you already have signed 
an account on google.com 



Making a Label or Map.

1. Log in to gmail.

2. Go to Settings > Label. Settings are in the upper right corner. A window 
pops up and you find the Label knob.Above the inbox there are also an link 
called make a filter and after above the inbox. Opening this, the same window 
opens.

3. Find the text box. Type the name viphone for the Label or Map(it is the 
same). Hit setup knob. Now you have a Label or Map in your list under Mailbox 
i.e. inbox, sent, all e-post etc.



Make a filter rule. It is easy. Gmail is accessible and straight forward in 
this case at least.

1. Find the knob Filter in the same window above the table in a list above the 
table. Hit filter. Now we want to filter viph...@googlegroups.com to go into 
the Label or Map you made.

2. Find the knob "make a new filter". A new window with a table opens. Set a 
filter. Make search criteria.

3. Find the text field "from". Do not type anything here - leave this field 
empty. 

4. Tab to "to" field Here you type viph...@googlegroups.com. 

5. Tab to subject. Leave this field empty.

6. Tab to "cotain these words". Leave this field empty.

7. Tab to "do not contain". Leave this field empty.

8. Tab to have attachment. Leave this empty.

9. Before you tab to next step, be aware of that the only field you enter any 
text or mark is in the field "to". Tab to the knob "next step" A new window 
containing an headline called "make a filter" a table called something like 
chose an action or command for this filter.

10. Tab to jump over the inbox. Place a check mark here. Very important.

11. Tab to mark it with a star. Leave this empty.

12. Tab to use the label. Make a check mark here. Very important.

13. Tab once to a know with a drop down list.Find the Label or Map called 
"viphone and hit it. Important: check that the Label viphone are chosen.

14. Tab to "delete it". Leave this field empty.

15. Tab to "do also use this filter on the conversations below. Leave this 
field empty. Very important that this field is empty. You can chose to check 
mark this step if you want to filter the mail you already have in your 
mailboxes. The reason why i did not recommended this is that it can take 
several days if you have 20 000 emails +. The emails will be filtered htough 
e.e. old emails.

16. Tab to "make filter". Finished. 



Now all the e-post sent to viph...@googlegroups.com will be sent to the label 
or map called viphone. This Label will reside in the last list under your 
inbox, sendt e-mail, delete etc. If it do not work, you have entered wrong 
address i.e. email address, period. It works. If you do exactly as described 
above. 



You will receive exactly the same 3000 emails as before, but the will be in the 
label viphone. You have therefore more space in your inbox for non list emails. 
You can do these steps for any list or from any sender. You can test the other 
options and delete those filters which do not works. Let us think about 8000 
thousand emails. You can have 4 Labels or Maps containing 2000 in each. And 
only have 70 emails in your inbox with more private subjects ore none email 
list post.



Take care

Hi,

In order for rules to sync across devices, you'll need to create these rules at 
the web interface level instead of the individual app level.  That is, if you 
create the rule in Mail on your Mac, it is not applied to any other Mac nor 
your iDevices.  Whereas, when you create the rule at the web-interface point, 
these rules get applied prior to reaching your Mac or iDevice thus all devices 
are synced.

Later...
