At last week’s staff meeting we discussed creating filters (also known as rules) in your e-mail. Filters allow you to direct incoming mail directly to a folder instead of your Inbox so that your Inbox isn’t so full of messages all the time.
University of Iowa has a great step-by-step procedure for creating a filter (http://its.uiowa.edu/support/article/1094) for those of us who have Outlook Web Access (any account ending with @johnstonlibrary.com). The filters will work in both Outlook and Outlook Web Access since these software programs are just two different ways to see your same mail, contacts, tasks, and appointments.
The link to Outlook Web Access is https://mail.cityofjohnston.com/owa.
For those of you who have Yahoo! Mail, follow these instructions for setting up a filter — http://help.yahoo.com/qe/my/tutorials/mmail/mm_filter1.html.
I would be happy to meet with you individually if you want assistance in filtering your e-mail.
