Sort existing emails according to rules
This guide explains how to sort e-mails currently present in your Infomaniak inbox or in subfolders, in order to, for example, quickly delete specific messages with the same structure, classify messages by subject or sender, etc.
Quickly sort a mail account
Unlike the guide Sort incoming emails according to rules (Sieve filters) which details how to set up, from the Infomaniak interface, filters that will apply to all future incoming messages, it is possible with the free software Thunderbird to apply sorting rules to already arrived and already present messages in a mail account:
- Install and then open Thunderbird.
- Configure your Infomaniak mail within the application.
- Open the Tools menu and click on Filters:
- Check the selected address and click on New...
- Configure the filter according to your preferences (here the rule is that all messages with the subject containing ER will be moved to the trash):
- Click on OK to return to the list of your filters and then click on Run now:
- The result is immediately visible as the messages are moved to the trash and disappear from the window.
