If too many messages are clogging up your inbox how do you forward a message to a different folder?

I get waaaaaay to many messages from facebook and other places so i have special folders to keep them all in once i read them in my inbox. But every time I get a facebook message I'm tired of moving it to the facebook folder. How do I simply forward all the facebook messages to the facbook folder so I don't have to move them?|||You can re-direct incoming mail-----but emails already in your inbox must be moved manually, by you.





You would have to set up personal "Filters", 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%26gt;%26gt;click "Filters" (from the list on the left)%26gt;%26gt;and click "add".


It's pretty much self explanatory, but basically----you enter the exact address you want to re-direct, on the "from header" blank----choose a folder (or make a new one here)----then click "add filter".


One address=one filter. Two addresses=two filters------etc.
