Custom "From:" Field Text in Email Blasts so Email Filters Work
0 followers

I belong to several groups and when I get an email blast from them, they all seem to contain the same "From:" field of cxmailer@collectivex.com. This isn't helpful because that means there is no way for me to set up my email client, Microsoft Outlook 2003 to filter and route emails from each Groupsite group to specific folders I have created for them. Is there any way to do this? If not, would you please add this as a feature request such that managers can add special text in the "From:" field that will always be added to email blasts?
Thanks

Steve - It was a pleasure speaking with you by phone. I hope you have luck finding the appropriate Outlook rule that allows you to sort by the Grosupite name which we do include in the From field of all outbound emails.

Shaun, it was indeed a pleasure. This was my mistake, so I apologize. As anyone that has worked with them knows, MS Outlook's Rules and Alerts feature is very powerful but very complex to make work correctly, especially if you have multiple email accounts and multiple groups you are trying to filter and route to correct folders.
I was able to get this to work by creating a separate rule for each Groupsite group that I belong to by using a rule similar to this one:
Apply this rule after the message arrives
through the ClarityPerformanceAlliance account
and with Chicago ISPI Board Members in the message header
and on this machine only
move it to the CISPI Inbox folder
stop processing more rules
I hope this helps others too.
Thanks!
