Example 2:
Create a new rule
Let's assume that
we have a subscription form on our web site, which is sent by email
and eventually comes to our mailbox. Now we'll create a rule which will
extract names and emails, save them to a text file, and delete message.
The example is shown below
Press 'Add rule'.
The new rule will be added and we'll be invited to rename it. Let's
name it 'Example1'. Now we need to create a new filter to find email
with the data from our web form. Select 'Filter' under 'Example1' click
right mouse button and choose ' Add filter'
We know that our web
form create a subject line 'My web form'. So we'll create 'SUBJECT'
filter. Choose 'SUBJECT' and press 'Next'
Enter My Web Form
in to the field 'Contains' and press 'Finish'. That's all for filters.
Now we should create a processors which will extract the data.
Select 'Processors'.
Press right mouse button and select 'Add Processor'. We know that the
data is in the body of the message. So we choose 'Message field' - BODY.
Also we know that our data starts after the defined text 'E-Mail ='
and finishes at the end of line. So at the end we get the following
window
Now you need to add
another processor for finding names. Now you can do it by yourself
The next step is saving
the results to a text file. Choose Actions, press right mouse button
and choose 'Add Action', the wizard will show, choose 'Write to File'
and press next.
On the following screen
choose a file name you want to save results and press 'Add All' button
to add all available processors. The results will be comma separated.
Press 'Finish' and
you're done with this action.
Now we need to delete
this message. Choose 'Actions' again, press right mouse button and choose
'Add Action', the wizard will show, choose 'Modify Message' and press
next.
At the next screen
you should choose an action - in our case 'Delete' and a folder - in
our case 'Inbox'
Press 'Finish'. The
rule is complete and will be applied when your account is processed.
