Creating an E-Mail Filter in Netscape 7.x for Macintosh

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 Netscape.
  2. Under the Window menu, select Mail & Newsgroups.
  3. Under the Tools menu, select Message Filters.
  4. In the Message Filters window that pops up, click on New.
  5. Type in a name for your filter at the top where it says Filter name.
  6. Select the Match any of the following radio button if it is not already selected.

  10. Make sure that the two drop-down boxes have Subject and contains selected if they are not already selected.

Select an option under Create as a subfolder of, or if you would like to use the default, click on the drop-down arrow and select [name of your account] on mail (could also be “Local Folders” instead of “mail”) and then choose this for the parent.
