Create and customize filters for your mailboxes
What is SIEVE?
SIEVE is a powerful and specific script language for writing, creating and customizing filters for e-mail messages.
What is a SIEVE filter?
A SIEVE filter is a filter for e-mail written in SIEVE language. Hosting Solutions provides users with some types of filter (sorting, autoresponder) applied on the server side and ready for customization. The user does not need to know the syntax of the language to customize it, because Hosting Solutions makes available in Advanced Webmail Avanzata a special interface for the customization of the chosen filter type.
The SIEVE filters provided by Hosting Solutions and customizable through the Advanced Webmail, are applied on the server side, then act on incoming messages directly on the email server. This means that, once set by the user, they are always active, regardless of which client is used to check the e-mail (webmail or non web client, such as Outlook, Thunderbird and similar).
The same interface for the activation of a SIEVE filter in Advanced Webmail, also allows the deactivation or modification.
