Client Rules are there to sort/delete incoming messages to folders according to the user specified conditions.
They work only and only when user logs on WebMail. In other words, rules are processed at the moment when user logs on so user can't expect that the messages will be sorted according to the rules if he/she downloads the messages to his/her Mail Client and he/she didn't log on WebMail before that. To sort message even without logging on WebMail, user has to set Server Rules instead.
The interface has two main parts. Left window shows a list of all rules which were already defined and theirs status - if they are ON or OFF. And the right window shows the rule which is chosen at the moment in the Rules List. If there are more conditions it is like they are linked with logical AND - all of them has to be fulfilled to process appropriate action.
User can disable all the rules by the Enable Client Rules checkbox.
New rule can be simply designed after clicking the Add button.
Filter name and Active status are shown in the Rules List window. Then user can set conditions for different types of headers or for Body of message. If more conditions are filled all has to be fulfilled to process the action. As an action is the move message to and user can choose to which folder he/she wants to move the message. In the folder pull-down menu there is also a special action !! Delete message !! but user should be careful if he/she sets all the conditions correctly in case he/she want to set this action.
After settings all the options and using the Save Changes button this rule will be added to the Rules List and will be processed each time user logs on WebMail.
