Icloud mail rules wildcard
A very specific question!
In iCloud Mail, you can use wildcards in your mail rules to match and filter emails more effectively. Here's how:
Wildcard characters:
*
(asterisk) matches any sequence of characters (including none)?
(question mark) matches any single character (including none)
Examples:
- To match any email address ending with
@example.com
, use the rule:@*example.com
- To match any email address containing
hello
in the subject, use the rule:subject: *hello*
- To match any email address from a specific domain, use the rule:
@domain.com
- To match any email address with a specific sender name, use the rule:
from: *John*
Tips:
- You can combine wildcards with other conditions, such as sender, recipient, or subject.
- Be careful when using wildcards, as they can match unintended emails if not used carefully.
- You can test your rules by clicking the "Test" button next to the rule in the iCloud Mail settings.
By using wildcards in your iCloud Mail rules, you can create more flexible and powerful filters to manage your email inbox.
