A lot of great ideas have come in.
If you prefer to use the built-in mail filtering in Sorting Office:
You put in all the positive filters to move the mail you want to
accept to particular folders. Then you put in a last filter to dispose
of spam that reaches you but was not addressed specifically to you.
Sequence is important
