Forwarding mail elsewhereIf forwarding mail permanently, your postmaster should set up an alias only, rather than a real mailbox. You can temporarily redirect mail by setting up a filter. Click Settings --> Filters and then click the green + icon at the left to add a filter. Name your rule and continue down the form, chosing to act on all messages executing the action: Redirect message to and then enter the email address. Click Save
Setting up other server-side filtersThese filters happen on the server side, so no matter what method you use to check your email, the filtering will have already happened upon reception. Filters can be created to do things like automatically sort certain mailings into appropriate folders, based on Subject, Sender, or Recipient. Click Settings --> Filters and then click the green + icon at the left to add a filter. Name it and continue down the form, building your filter to work however you chose.Click Save Changing passwordsYou can change your email password by logging in to Webmail and clicking Settings --> Password (or Options --> Change Password in the old webmail). Enter your current password and your new password (twice), and click Save. Of course, you must also update your password in your email program if you use one. If you do not know your password, have your postmaster reset it for you.Automatic filtering of spam/virusesOur NPOShield system identifies spam and virus messages by inserting [SPAM] or [VIRUS] into the subject line. These messages are then automatically filtered into folders named Spam and Virus on the NPOMail server, where you can view them via Webmail or an IMAP client (not POP). Messages in these folders, and in the trash, will be automatically purged after 14 days.Built-in group addressYou can write to all of your organization's email accounts at once by sending a message to all@your-domain.org. This special address is not valid for mail coming in from the Internet, in order to prevent abuse and spam, but you can use it from anywhere by logging into your NPOMail account via Webmail and sending from there. | |||
