SPT 1500 Product Reference Guide

Defining Filter Strings

Messages are filtered based on the information contained in their To, From and Subject
header fields. The information that defines what your SPT 1500 terminal is looking for is
called a filter string. You create a filter string by listing the words you want your SPT 1500
terminal to find and separating them with either a comma or a space. Each word in the filter
string is joined by an implicit OR; because of this, you should not enter connecting words
such as AND or OR.

To create a more complex filter, you can define filter strings for the To, From and Subject fields
simultaneously. Your SPT 1500 terminal joins the filter strings for these fields using an
implicit AND. Once again, you should not add connecting words. Your SPT 1500 terminal
does that for you.

Ignore
Messages
Containing

Tells your SPT 1500 terminal to exclude the
messages that meet the defined criteria and
download all other messages during
synchronization. In general, this filter
downloads more mail during synchronization
because it blocks only one defined subset of
mail.

Retrieve Only
Messages
Containing

Tells your SPT 1500 terminal to include only
the messages that meet the defined criteria
and to ignore all other messages during
synchronization. This filter has the potential
to block more mail during synchronization
because it downloads only one subset of mail.
