Please tell me how to set up one of those folders; as I had a Stroke and cannot understand directions unless they are specific and in step by step instructions!
Thanks for your help and support!

@rachelanne. The instructions I have are from Colleen. She gave the links, and I could not find that email, but finally located it. I haven't had time to set this up yet, but hope to try this afternoon.

I can give you what Colleen sent out, but I am not a computer person, so I just have to follow what someone tells me.

If this doesn't make sense, there are other Volunteer Mentors who know all about computers and what to do.

Is this too much? If it is, let me know and I'll send you to a Mentor who can make it easier. I don't understand all the steps, but I'll just try to do them and see if I can.

Here is what Colleen sent:

[Tip] Filter your Connect emails into a folder
Posted by @colleenyoung, Aug 17, 2017

The number of emails from Connect can make it difficult to see your regular mail. Here’s a tip for sorting Connect-related emails into a folder.
Set up a filter or rule. (It is called different things depending on which email client you use, i.e., Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.) This will send all the Connect emails into a folder and bypass your inbox. Then you can choose when to go through your Connect emails and spend time with the community.
Use the key word “@n1.hubapplication.com” as the filter.

Here’s how in Gmail. https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6579?hl=en
Open Gmail.
In the search box at the top, click the Down arrow.
Enter your search criteria (many options are provided but you only need to fill in one) I put “@n1.hubapplication.com” into the “Has the words” field.
At the bottom of the search window, click Create filter with this search.
Choose what you’d like the filter to do. For example, Go to a specific folder and Skip the inbox.
Click Create filter.

I hope this works for you.
