I know how to set up folders and move specific messages to those folders, but is there a way to set my mail so that messages from certain contacts go straight into those folders rather than my inbox? I like to get Facebook stuff sent to me, but it really clogs up my inbox, which is especially annoying when I'm waiting for important messages. Can I set up a Facebook folder so that all Facebook info goes straight into it?Creating a folder in Yahoo Mail?
You would have to set up a personal ';Filter';, to re-direct incoming mail (from a designated address), to a separate folder, instead of the inbox.
Mail page%26gt;%26gt;options (top right)%26gt;%26gt;mail options.
Click on ';Filters';---(on the left)---and click ';add';.
It's pretty much self explanatory, but basically----you enter (on the from header line) the *exact address* you want to re-direct----choose a folder (or make a new one here)----then click ';add filter';.
This tutorial should answer any questions you have.
