Defining Filter Strings
E-mail items are filtered based on the information contained in their
To:, From:, and Subj: fields. The information that defines what your
handheld computer is looking for is called a filter string. You create a
filter string by listing the words you want your handheld computer to
find and separating them with either a comma or a space. Each word
in the filter string is joined by an implicit OR, so you do not need to
enter logical connectors like AND or OR.
To create a more complex filter, you can define filter strings for the
To:, From:, and Subj: fields simultaneously. Your handheld computer
joins the filter strings for these fields using an implicit AND; once
again, you do not need to add the logical connector. Your handheld
computer does that for you.
For example, suppose you want to receive only e-mail items from
John Smith (jsmith@aol.com) or Jack Jones (jjones@aol.com)
concerning the Apollo Project. You would create the following filter
strings:
In the To: field: jsmith@aol.com, jjones@aol.com
In the Subj: field: Apollo Project
Your handheld computer interprets this as, “Accept e-mail items
about the Apollo Project from John Smith or Jack Jones. Do not
accept e-mail items from other people. Do not accept e-mail items
from John or Jack about any other subject.”
When you define a string, note that your handheld computer searches
for any instance of that sequence of characters. For example, if you
create a filter that retrieves only e-mail items containing the string
“info,” your handheld computer considers “info,” “rainforest” and
“kinfolk” appropriate matches.
