I’ve had a problem with Apple Mail not being consistent as to Applying the RULES that you have formulated..

One thing I liked about Eudora was the ability to bounce back to the sender, unwanted eMails. Mail used to have that option; but it no longer does, mainly because it just increases the total spam load on the system because the ‘from’ address is rarely the real place it came from. To be honest, I’ve never really like client-side mail rules; I always had the luxury of being able to set up server-side ones. Note: if you use your iCloud email address you can set the rules on the iCloud server, which will filter email before it goes to your devices: <http://www.macworld.com/article/2046147/five-icloud-email-tricks-you-probably-missed.html> One thing I now notice that Dan did not mention was what kind of email server he’s dealing with: POP or IMAP? I think Mail does things differently between those two. I’ve NEVER used POP mail for more than a few months.
