Adjusting Your Trainings
Your SaneFwd folder will be trained to automatically forward emails for you. You can adjust your trainings on your trainings page of your Dashboard.
Assigning forwarding addresses:
You can assign multiple forwarding addresses to the folder. Emails will be sent to each address so assigned. You will see this control after you create your SaneFwd folder:
Forwarding New or All Emails
With SaneFwd, you'll have the ability to have all emails forwarded by that contact or only new emails going forward. Adjusting this setting to "New" will only forward future emails.
The All Emails setting will forward the email you put into your SaneFwd folder plus all emails from that contact to the forwarded email address that you have setup.
Do you want only new emails to be forwarded?
Do you want to have your forwarded emails marked as read?
What Current Users are Using it for:

General Notes:
To distinguish between your normal mail and emails that are forwarded, you will see [SaneFwd] in the subject line. If you would like this to be turned off, please drop us a note here.
Lastly, emails that are forwarded will appear in your Sent folder, as usual.
