1
00:00:00,220 --> 00:00:03,640
Using filters in Yahoo Mail for iPhone

2
00:00:03,780 --> 00:00:10,160
Use a filter when you want Yahoo Mail to automatically deliver specific kinds of email messages to folders other than the Inbox

3
00:00:10,340 --> 00:00:15,300
To get started, select Filters on the navigation screen

4
00:00:15,500 --> 00:00:18,300
Click + to begin adding a new filter

5
00:00:18,380 --> 00:00:22,080
First, give your new filter a name

6
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,940
Next, define the rule or rules for your filter

7
00:00:25,020 --> 00:00:28,480
Rules tell Yahoo Mail how to recognize incoming messages for delivery to a specific folder

8
00:00:28,580 --> 00:00:33,940
Let's say you want all messages about Europe from Andy to go into the Vacation folder

9
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:42,900
Rule #1: The email is about Europe

10
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:52,180
Rule #2: The email is from Andy

11
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,440
Delivery folder: select Vacation

12
00:00:55,580 --> 00:00:59,120
Save your filter

13
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,280
Ordering your filters

14
00:01:02,420 --> 00:01:05,160
Your new filter appears at the bottom of the filters list

15
00:01:05,379 --> 00:01:08,020
Yahoo Mail applies filters in the order listed, beginning with the top filter

16
00:01:08,154 --> 00:01:11,874
Here the Andy filter is higher in the list than the Vacation filter

17
00:01:11,940 --> 00:01:16,260
This filter delivers all emails from Andy into the Family folder

18
00:01:16,540 --> 00:01:22,660
Because this filter applies first, all Andy's emails go into the Family folder

19
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,880
The Vacation filter doesn't even get a chance to apply

20
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,480
You can fix this by moving the filter up to change the order in which it applies

21
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:33,640
Now the Vacation filter is above the Andy filter, so it applies first

22
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:42,080
Emails from Andy with Europe in the subject are delivered to the Vacation folder

23
00:01:42,220 --> 00:01:47,140
All other emails from Andy are delivered to the Family folder

24
00:01:47,340 --> 00:01:51,860
Yahoo Mail lets you have up to 200 filters, so take advantage of them to get your incoming email organized!
