Reordering Sort & Delete Settings

As you add more Sort & Delete Settings, you may have certain rules overlapping each other, in which case, the Setting ranked higher on the list takes priority.

For example, you may have one Setting (called Forwards) specify that all incoming messages where the subject contains "FWD" go to your "Forwards" folder, while another Setting (called Mother) sends all incoming messages from your mother (mother@someisp.com) to the "Mother" folder.

If your Mother Setting is higher on the priority list than your Forwards Setting, then a message by mother@someisp.com with the subject "FWD: Joke" will be sent to the "Mother" folder, thus following the Mother Setting rule before the Forwards rule.

If your Forwards Setting is higher on the priority list than your Mother Setting, then a message by mother@someisp.com with the subject "FWD: Joke" will be sent to the "Forwards" folder, thus following the Forwards Setting rule before the Mother rule.
