Using blacklists to block senders
To help filter out unwanted email, you can use blacklists to specify hosts and domains that are sources of unwanted email.
Filtering mail using rules
You can use mail rules to move, forward, or delete new messages you receive that meet certain conditions. For example, you could create a rule that checks for messages from a certain sender or that contain a certain subject and automatically move the messages to a certain folder, send copies of the messages to someone, or delete unwanted messages before you ever see them in your Inbox.
Archiving messages to free up space
Archiving frees up space and improves the performance of your mail. You can still access messages after archiving them.
Tracking a message that has been sent
When troubleshooting, you may need to track a message you have sent. You can track sent messages to learn what servers they move through.
Upgrading the design of your mail folders
Depending on settings controlled by your Domino® administrator, it is possible that HCL Notes® upgraded your mail file design to include the latest design for Notes folders such as Inbox and Trash, but not for folders you have created.
