Filter Yahoo! Mail Spam to a Special Folder in Eudora

By Heinz Tschabitscher, About.com

If you download your Yahoo! Mail messages in Eudora, you can mimic the Yahoo! Mail Bulk Mail folder locally. You get all the spam that is detected by Yahoo! Mail's filters, but using a special tag you can move it out of your Eudora Inbox to a special folder automatically.

To filter Yahoo! Mail spam to a special "Bulk Mail" folder in Eudora:

  • Select Tools | Filters from the Eudora menu.
  • Click New.
  • Make the filter criterion read «Any Header» contains X-YahooFilteredBulk.
  • Under Action, select Transfer To.
  • Use the In button to select or create a "Bulk Mail" folder.
  • Close the Filters window.
  • Click Yes to save the new filter.
