    I get about 100 newsletters a day so I set up a rule in Outlook Express so that any email with either the word 'congratulations' or 'winner' goes straight to a separate folder called WINS. I still check all the newsletters just in case but it usually means if there is a win, it jumps out at me straight away by appearing in the other folder.

    I know how to do this in Outlook, but any idea how to do it in Yahoo mail?

    I'm just trying to do this now.I think its OPTIONS...........MORE OPTIONS......................Automatically sort e-mail into folders.......NEW FILTER............and then just insert the key words.

    I'll give it a few days a see how it works.

    You first need to create a new folder so go to new then folder, call it wins, then whilst still on your inbox goto tools, message rules then mail, then click new, check the box where the subject line contains the word it will then appear blue at the bottom, click it and type in congratulations the check the box move it to specified folder, again click it at bottom and select wins folder, hope that is understandable, i mumble a little lol
