SPT 1550 Product Reference Guide
Defining Filter Strings
Messages are filtered based on the information contained in their To, From and Subject
header fields. The information that defines what your SPT 1550 terminal is looking for is
called a
filter string
. You create a filter string by listing the words you want your SPT 1550
terminal to find and separating them with either a comma or a space. Each word in the filter
string is joined by an implicit OR; do not enter connecting words such as AND or OR.
To create a more complex filter, you can define filter strings for the To, From and Subject
fields simultaneously. Your SPT 1550 terminal joins the filter strings for these fields using
an implicit AND, so do not add connecting words. Your SPT 1550 terminal does that for you.
For example, suppose you want to receive only messages from John Smith
(jsmith@aol.com) or Jack Jones (jjones@aol.com) concerning the Apollo Project. You
would create the following filter strings:
To field filter string: jsmith@aol.com, jjones@aol.com
Subject field filter string: Apollo Project
Your SPT 1550 terminal interprets this as, “Accept messages about the Apollo Project from
John Smith or Jack Jones. Do not accept messages from other people. Do not accept
messages from John or Jack about any other subject.”
When you define a string, note that your SPT 1550 terminal searches for any instance of
that
collection
of characters. For example, if you create a filter that retrieves only messages
containing the string “info,” your SPT 1550 terminal considers “info,” “rainforest” and
“kinfolk” appropriate matches.
Retrieve Only
Msgs
Containing Tells your SPT 1550 terminal to
include
only the messages that meet the
defined criteria and to ignore all other messages during synchronization.
This filter may block more mail during synchronization because it
downloads only one subset of mail.
