Using Filters on the New Rogers Mail format.

[Cozisaid]

Hey all, 

Just wondering if some of you smart types might have any idea about this, 

In the Rogers mail format I have been using for a while (not Rogers Mail Classic-I think it would be considered the 'old New Mail format') to create a filter i was able to simply click Actions and then 'Fliter Emails Like This'. Simple and easy.

With this new format that option no longer seems to exist.. Now it seems the only way to create a filter is to go into Options, Mail Options, Filters, Add Filters and then, most annoyingly, type in each email manually (meaning I have to either remember or copy & paste it). 

Yes I know, I know it's not the end of the world. But it was certainly much more convinient before. And if one has to make several filters at once, it can be annoying and time consuming. 

Does anyone happen to know of an easier way to make filters with the new Rogers Mail format? 

Or, failing that, does anyone know how to switch back to my previous format?

Thanks for all your help

J

It's been a while since I've had to do this, but as far as I can recall, it's always been like this on Yahoo Mail (that's really what Rogers Mail is - they just have their name stamped on the banner, they have nothing with the actual service as far as I know.)  I've only seen "filter messages like this" on GMail.
