Create a sorting rules template for your email

Update 08/10/2026

This guide explains how to create a template for the sorting/filtering tool (conditions that allow you to automatically categorize your emails based on certain criteria) for all your email accounts in the Infomaniak Mail web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail).

 

Introduction

  • A template allows you to create the basic structure of a tool that can then be used by multiple users of the same Infomaniak Mail service, and even customized according to the person who will be using it.
  • In the case of a rule template, the template creator chooses the condition(s) that will trigger the action.however, it is up to the end user, from within their Mail interface, to define the action to be performed(e.g., moving to a specific folder) when adding a rule based on the existing template.
  • For privacy reasons, it is not possible to apply sorting rules to multiple email addresses at the same time.
  • You can also hide a template so that it is no longer used.
