About email message filters
You can create email message filters to specify which incoming email messages your BlackBerry® device receives. Email message filters also
determine how BlackBerry® Mail forwards email messages to your device (for example, high importance or header only). You can specify criteria
for your email message filters based on who sent the email message, how you were addressed, and what level of importance the sender assigned
to the email message.
BlackBerry Mail applies email message filters to an incoming email message in the order that the email message filters appear. If none of the
email message filters that you create apply to an incoming email message, BlackBerry Mail applies a default email message filter to the email
message. You can specify whether you want this default email message filter to forward all email messages to your device or not.
You cannot create or change email message filters using a browser on your device. To create or change email message filters, you must use
the email setup application on your device or log in to the BlackBerry Mail web site using a browser on your computer.
Troubleshooting for email message management
