Default Action

The Default action section lets you control which action is displayed by default when viewing a group of messages in a Smart Folder. By default, this field is set to Trash, but you can click the drop-down and choose a different default action.

In the Quick Cancel section, you can control whether or not Clean Email will present a cancel button briefly before executing cleaning actions. This option is disabled by default, as shown in the following illustration.

Reset “Confirmation Required” Dialogs

In the section labeled Reset “Confirmation Required” Dialogs, you can optionally reset the status of all confirmation dialogs in the system back to their default settings.

Reset Confirmation Required Dialogs

For example, when applying a cleaning action, you may see a confirmation dialog that asks you to verify the action you want to perform. In many of these confirmation dialogs, you can toggle on or off the option Do not ask for confirmation again.

Aliases Tab

On the Aliases tab, you can enter any email aliases that can be used to send mail to your primary email account.

An email alias is an address that is different than your primary email address but is configured to automatically forward messages to your primary address. For example, suppose you have a special address that you only provide to certain people. When someone sends a message to that address, the message is automatically forwarded to you at your primary address. Enter the forwarding address–that is, the alias–in this field so that Clean Email can receive, display, and process messages sent to that alias.

You can add individual addresses or the whole email domain.

The Aliases tab

Pinned Tab

On the Pinned tab, you can control your pinned messages. When you pin messages (e.g., all messages from a given sender), the messages are not affected by any automated cleaning rules at all.

The Pinned tab

For more information about pinned messages, please see our article Pinned Messages.

Sender Groups Tab

On the Sender Groups tab, you can define groups of contacts and optionally pin messages from the email addresses of the members of those groups.

The Contact Groups tab

For example, you can enter your friends’ email addresses in the Friends group. Press Enter to start a new line after each address, and click Save to save your changes.

Click Save

For each contact group (Friends, Family, or Coworkers), you can optionally click to enable the Pin messages switch. Turning this on automatically pins all messages received from members of the selected group, so that Clean Email will not apply any cleaning actions (other than pin rules) to those messages. For more information, please see our article Pinned Messages.
