Configuring the Filter Mail List

The e-mail addresses and domains that you add to the Filter Mail List will be filtered into your spam folder unless the address is also on your Accept list. (The Accept list always takes precedence over the Filter list.) Messages received from the identified e-mail addresses or domains are automatically filed as spam, even if they are not flagged as spam by the Andrew Spam Filter.

To add an e-mail address or domain to the Filter list:

1. From the Carnegie Mellon portal, select the My Accounts tab.
2. Click on the Turn on/off Spam Filtering link on the left sidebar.
3. Type the e-mail address or domain name (e.g., jdoe@hotmail.com, hotmail.com) in the Filter Mail field.
   
   
4. Click Add. The address or domain that you entered is added to the Filter Mail List area.
5. Click Submit at the bottom of the Advanced Features area to save your changes.

To remove an e-mail address or domain from the Filter list:

1. From the Carnegie Mellon portal, select the My Accounts tab.
2. Click on the Turn on/off Spam Filtering link on the left sidebar.
3. In the Filter Mail List area, select the e-mail address or domain you want to remove.
4. Click Remove. The address or domain that you selected is removed from the Filter List.
5. Click Submit to save your changes.
