Filter Rules - Public

Bulletin Mail puts you in complete control over what messages are delivered to, or blocked from your mobile device – by using a set of filters you are in control of your mail.

If you choose to Block an address or domain then any messages from these addresses will be listed in your Blocked Log.

Some senders may be covered by more than one rule so to avoid confusion it may be best to keep the rules as specific as possible (one per email address).

You can view your current rules summary via your Mail Profile Settings. To view the details of a rule simply click any part of the rule that you want to view/edit and make the changes. To create a new rule, click the "Add Rule" link in the navigation panel.

Blocking Unwanted Messages

Unsolicited email is a major problem that is compounded when it starts to appear on your phone - and you are paying to receive it! To minimize this, we suggest not using your Bulletin Mail address for any news groups or online registrations.

If you do receive messages from senders that you would like to block

from your mobile via SMS
Reply to the message with 'BL' and this sender will be added to your Blocked List and no more messages will be received from that sender to your mobile.
from your mobile via WAP
Open the message in your phone browser and select 'block' from the menu.
from the Bulletin Mail website
View the message detail and press the BLOCK button.

Whilst mail filtering is not an anti-spam solution, it is used in conjunction with such services to control how your mobile email is delivered.

Bulletin Mail honors Spam headers from the following Anti Spam Products:

Messages identified as SPAM by these products are automatically blocked by Bulletin Mail before processing any of your defined filters.
