Multiple accounts = out of luck
Those of us who use several accounts with Mail.app are out of luck as far as filter number one - there is no way to filter spam that does not go to *any* of your accounts. At least, not until 10.2's Mail.app - which everyone can't wait for ANYWAY. Seriously, I'm thinking of pirating Jaguar JUST for Mail.app! (Unless GNUMail.app pulls through in the meantime)
Multiple accounts
I have something similar set up with my accounts except for each account I put a rule like this at the end of the rules list:
Criteria: TO or CC: CONTAINS: "enter part of your domain name"
Action: Transfer to mailbox: inbox
and then this to filter off the crap:
Criteria: From: DOES NOT CONTAIN: OBAFGKM
Action: Transfer to mailbox: spam spam spam
Since mail doesn't have a criteria to just activate a rule, I had to make something that every message won't match and move it to the spam bin.
Also, thanks for mentioning GNUMail.app! It is at 1.0.2 and appears to be in good working order. What's keeping you from using it?
Multiple accounts = out of luck
I would not advise you to `pirate' Jaguar. The Installation readme specifically states that updating from the beta to the retail version will likely be impossible. This means that, unless you have a dedicated machine to test run the new Mail.app on, you'll have to back up all your files on a different partition before installing the beta. I chose to wait, and satisfy my curiosity by looking at screen shots here and there.
By the way: it seems Mail.app in Jaguar will still not filter outgoing messages automatically. You can apply your filters to the Sent Messages mbox manually, as you can now, but it would be nice if filters were applied upon sending, with no user action required. |
