== Using Filter(s) on your Mail Client ==

As Chris Menzel once suggested, among the best ways to do this is to
[[Category:Person]]
receive the distribution in "normal" (into your inbox) mode (rather
than "digest" mode"), but set the filter on your mail client to put it
away in a separate folder (rather than your "inbox") so you can read
it at a time more suitable to yourself.
 
'''For Microsoft Outlook (with Microsoft Exchange Server)''' (--MatthewWest / 2007.03.23)
 
* You need to be using Outlook online rather than offline.
* From the menu:
* Tools, rules wizard
* New
* Select: Check message when it arrives
* Next
* Check: with specific words in the subject
* Select: specific words
* enter: string to look for, e.g. [ontolog
* Add
* OK
* Next
* Check: move it to the specified folder
* Select: specfied folder
* browse for folder required
* Next
* Enter name for the rule, e.g. ONTOLOG
* Finish
 
'''For the Mozilla Thunderbird e-mail client''' (-PeterYim / 2007.08.07)
 
{{{
Legend:
|  =  separator (from one instruction element to the next)
( ) = comment
abc = click on, select, or continue with the selection of "abc"
"abc" = fill in the form/field with the input "abc"
[ ] = selection (e.g. radio button, check box or dropdown selection of choice)
}}}
 
* (dropdown menu) Tools | Message Filters ...
* New | Filter name: = "ONTOLOG" (example) | [Match any of the following]
* [subject] | [contains] | "[ontolog"
* Perform these actions: | [Move Message to] | [ontolog] (example only, assume you have created a folder labeled * "ontolog" as a container for the incoming ontolog messages (rather than having it go to your "inbox")
* OK
* Run selected filter(s) on: [Inbox] | Run Now
