Creating Special Filters

You can create special filters to control the type of e-mail
items that download to your handheld computer during
synchronization. Special filters work on the premise of ignoring or
retrieving items that contain specific information in their header
fields.
To create a special filter, you must decide whether you want to
ignore or retrieve certain e-mail items. Then, based on that decision,
you must tell your handheld computer what it needs to look for in the
To:, From:, and Subj: fields to single out those e-mail items.
