strings for these fields using an implicit AND; once again, you do not
need to add the logical connector. Your organizer does that for you.
For example, suppose you want to receive only e-mail items from John
Smith ([email protected]) or Jack Jones ([email protected]) concerning the
Apollo Project. You would create the following filter strings:
In the To: field: [email protected], [email protected]
In the Subj: field: Apollo Project
Your organizer interprets this as, “Accept e-mail items about the
Apollo Project from John Smith or Jack Jones. Do not accept e-mail
items from other people. Do not accept e-mail items from John or Jack
about any other subject.”
When you define a string, note that your organizer searches for any
instance of that sequence of characters. For example, if you create a
filter that retrieves only e-mail items containing the string “info,” your
organizer considers “info,” “rainforest” and “kinfolk” appropriate
matches.
To define a filter string:
1. Tap a header field in the HotSync Options dialog box.
2. Enter your filter string, using commas or spaces to separate the
words. Do not add connectors, such as AND or OR, between
words in a string.
