Can you specify which header in the "Includes these words in the message header" rule?

Can you specify which header in the "Includes these words in the message header" rule? I want to trigger only off of presence in the 'To' field, if someone has that address in the Subject or any other field that shouldn't trigger the rule.

Hi,

At the moment this is not possible. Are you trying to create a rule for email aliases? If not the "Sent to" rule should work for your use case.

Kind regards, Robin

  • Yeah,exactly. I have a few various alias addresses (a@xyz.com, b@somethingelse.com) and want that e-mail sorted to folders based on that. I tried Sent To but didn't realize I can type an arbitrary user@domain in there, let me give that a shot.

  • Robin that doesn't seem to be working - can you put an user's second email alias in a "Sent To" rule by just typing user@seconddomain.com ?

  • Hi, I'm sorry if my message was not 100% clear. If your intent is to create rules on mail aliases you cannot use the "sent to" option. You can type any valid email address in the field for the "sent to" option but aliases are resolved on delivery so the email rule will not match.

    For aliases the only option is to create a rule with the condition "word in the message header".

    Kind regards, Robin

  • Thanks, Robin. I think being able to specify which header you want it to search would be useful, please add it to the feature request list. :-)
