Help With Filters and Labels

Mutant-Dogs · 07-24-2005, 05:37 AM

Hay,
I have just started using filters and labels, and I wanted to know if it was possible to make a filter for a whole group of people to be labelled as "Friends"

From what I can see, I would have to create a filter for every single person I want to automatically be labelled as a Friend....
-thanks

Try using OR between each e-mail adress or name in the from field and test it by pressing Test Search. A possibility would be to use the name of your friend rather than e-mail adress. Remember to use quotes if you want an exact name search.

Try that for starters. Good luck.
