Apple mail flag set rule

In Apple Mail, you can set a rule to flag emails based on specific conditions. Here's how:

Step 1: Create a new rule

  1. Open Apple Mail and go to Mail > Preferences > Rules.
  2. Click the "+" button at the bottom left corner of the window to create a new rule.

Step 2: Set the condition

  1. In the "If" section, select "Any of the following conditions" and then choose "Message" from the dropdown menu.
  2. Select "Contains" and enter the text or phrase you want to search for in the email subject or body.
  3. You can also choose other conditions like "From", "To", "CC", "BCC", "Has attachment", etc.

Step 3: Set the action

  1. In the "Do" section, select "Move message" and choose the folder where you want to move the flagged emails.
  2. Alternatively, you can choose "Flag message" and select the flag color you want to use.

Step 4: Save the rule

  1. Click "Save" to save the rule.

Now, whenever an email matches the condition you set, it will be flagged with the color you chose.

Example rule: Flag emails from a specific sender

Whenever an email is received from "[email protected]", it will be flagged with a red flag.

Example rule: Flag emails with a specific subject

Whenever an email has the subject "Urgent", it will be flagged with a yellow flag.

You can create multiple rules to flag emails based on different conditions. Just remember to save each rule separately!
