Re: [LUG] Web Mail with Filters

[Ben Whorwood <ml-devcornlinuxgrp@xxxxxxxxxx>]

If you use cPanel then you can create server-side rules through the 
control panel or when logging into webmail (http://example.com/webmail 
typically) - *before* selecting Horde, Squirrel Mail, etc, select Email 
filtering and create the rules in there, for example:

https://ar.al/484/

Hosted email providers (like Rackspace) tend to provide this kind of 
facility through their bespoke webmail or control panel interfaces.

Not sure if you host your website on shared hosting or a VPS, etc, which 
really sets out the options you have. Things like the above if shared 
hosting, procmail and the like if you run your own server.
