Creating an E-Mail Filter in Eudora 5.x for Windows

IMPORTANT NOTE: The only situation where filtering would be applicable with Barracuda is if you have your options for Quarantine turned to off (No) and Spam Filtering turned to on (Yes)
  1. Open Eudora.
  2. Under the Tools menu, select Filters.
  3. Click on the New button.

  4. Under Match (near the top) click the box directly before Incoming if it is not already selected.
  5. For the drop-down box to the right of the word Header, choose Subject.
  6. Choose contains from the drop-down box directly below the Header drop-down box and then type in the word [SPAM] (making sure to include the brackets) in the text box.
  7. Next, where it says “ignore” in the drop-down box below the options you just set, change this to “or”
  8. For the second Header drop-down box, choose Subject.
  9. Choose contains directly below that box and type in the word [QUAR] (making sure to include the brackets) in the text box.
  10. Under Action choose Transfer To (about the second one from the bottom of the list) from the first drop-down box.
  11. Click on the In button.


  12. You will get a pop up just below the button showing you a list of all your folders and the option for a New one. You may choose any folder that already exists or create one. To create a new one, select New. You will get a new pop up box (shown below) called New Mailbox. Type a name for the new mailbox you would like to create (we used SPAM) and then click OK when finished.


  13. When you change screens, or close the current window or program, it will ask you if you want to save your filters. Choose Yes.
