[Nov 23, 2009 14:09] Web access to Microsoft Live@edu accounts now works.
The topic filter categorizes each incoming email message according to specified regular expression filters. If the Subject: or Keywords: of any message contains a match against a topic filter, the message is logically placed into a topic "bucket." Each user can then choose to only receive messages from the mailing list for one or more topic bucket(s) via the member configuration screens. Any message not categorized in a topic bucket registered with the user is not delivered. Note that this feature only works with regular delivery, not digest delivery.
Topics
- Enable topic filter:
- Default is Disabled. Setting this option to Enabled will turn on the topic filter for your mailing list.
- Body lines to scan with topic filter:
- Default is 5. The topic matcher will scan this many lines of the message body looking for topic keyword matches. Body scanning stops when either this many lines have been looked at, or a non-header-like body line is encountered.
- By setting this value to zero, no body lines will be scanned (i.e. only the Keywords: and Subject: headers will be scanned).
- By setting this value to a negative number, all body lines will be scanned until a non-header-like line is encountered.
- Topic keywords to match:
- Give each topic a name, then enter keywords as regular expressions, one per line, for the topic filter to scan for when sorting messages by topic.
