I use email aliases for my email account to design incoming email filters for mail sent to me from different sources, for example:
It's easy for me to set up incoming search filters for the "newsletter" or "bills" aliases, so I can select messages sent only to those labels. For example: to:[email protected]
.
However, I have not figured out a design for an incoming mail filter to take action on emails addressed to my "bare" email, [email protected]
. I've tried what I thought would be an exact match, to:"[email protected]"
, only to find that the filter selects email sent to all three addresses: [email protected]
, [email protected]
, and [email protected]
.
What Gmail incoming mail filter will select only messages sent to [email protected]
exactly so I can process them in some way (for example, forwarding them)?
Note: I filed a very similar question recently but I realized after an answer was submitted that I hadn't made it clear that I want to take action upon incoming email to my bare address rather than simply post-process email already received.
