Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Anyone know how to use wildcards when searching subject line of email?

 

I want to catch all emails whos subject starts with "Order number:"

 

Third time i try to post this, the previous posts have vanished without a trace 😞

    Accept all emails in the email condition and then create another condition that chekcs the subject.  In that conditin, you can check for contains, at least.

     

    In my experience, the email filter fields don't work at all, so that's what I've done to workaround the limitation. 

     

    Good luck!
