The mail file rules allow the individual end user to isolate messages by sender address, domain, subject, or even by message body content. When creating anti-spam mail file rules with your Notes client, you, as an end user, can be specific and aggressive when defining the rules. Attention: Even though the mail file rules are created and managed on the Notes client for individual end users, they are evaluated and enforced on the Domino server. There's no way to run mail file rules in the Notes Client. Mail file rules are used to control incoming e-mail messages. In addition to helping prevent spam, mail file rules can be used to manage your legitimate e-mail messages. In this section, we concentrate on anti-spam mail file rule development. 5.2.1 Setting up mail file rules Use the following steps to manage your mail file rules: 1. Open your mail file. The Views and Folders list is displayed on the left. 2. Select Tools → Rules under the Views and Folders list to open the Rules view. 3. Click the New Rule button to begin building an anti-spam rule. The Rule dialog box is the primary interface for developing your anti-spam rules. Figure 5-1 on page 69 shows the New Rule dialog. 68 Lotus Domino 6 spam Survival Guide for IBM eServer
