How to Create a Filter in Yahoo Mail

One of the best things about Yahoo Mail is that it lets you organize your inbox as per your preference. Yahoo Mail allows its user to create up to 1000 filters and decides which email to deliver in which folder. Classify incoming emails by creating a separate filter for the email messages as per their category. For example, create a folder by the name – "Family" and you will find all your emails from the members of your family getting delivered in this folder.

So whether it’s an email from your boss, friend or family, you can easily create a filter to directly send email to their respective folder. To know how to create a filter in a Yahoo Mail, follow the step-by-step instructions given below:
