转:Gmail过滤器的20个巧妙用途

本文来源于Angelived http://angelived.org , 原文地址: http://angelived.org/2007/08/23/20-ways-to-use-gmail-filters/

Gmail最酷的一个功能就是它的过滤器(Filter)——通过适当的设置,过滤器可以大大增强本已十分强大的Gmail邮箱。通过建立一些简单的过滤规则,就可以节省下很多时间及空间、删除收件箱里不要的邮件甚至把你的Gmail变成一个多功能的工具。
当然,Gmail的过滤器也有一些不足,希望Gmail能在今后改进这些功能:
无法通过过滤器标记邮件为已读
不能创建一个灵活的文件夹
很难将一个长的Email地址加入过滤规则
但总的来说,Gmail的过滤功能还是非常棒的。这里有一些技巧可以帮你了解如何用好它:
Killfile。如果有人给我发送很多的垃圾邮件(恶作剧邮件、多链接的邮件),他们就会被加入我的KillFile。看一下发件人处的Email地址是否已经存在于我的Killfile过滤规则中,如果已存在,就删除这封邮件;如果没有,那么就把这个Email地址加入Killfile的过滤规则中。
逻辑命令。过滤器的工作机理类似于与Gmail的搜索功能,所以,你可以使用一些搜索指令如 AND OR NOT。当我要找一些人的地址时,我可以使用OR;当邮件中都包含一系列的关联词汇时我可以用AND。使用搜索运算符会使这个过程更简便:"|"表示OR;"-"表示NOT;空格表示AND;圆括号用来把你的搜索语句中的不同条件组合起来。
其他的搜索命令。除了上述一般的过滤命令外,Gmail过滤器还可以使用如“from:”, “to:”, “has:”, “is:”, “filename:” 及 “label:”, 使用这些搜索命令会使你的Gmail过滤器更加强大。
发送提醒邮件。我希望Google能对Gmail增加的其中一个功能就是定时发送邮件。这可以使我能够按规定时间发送提醒邮件给别人。而目前,作为替代我注册了一个可以发送提醒邮件到我Gmail的服务,然后依据邮件标题或内容的不同建立过滤规则以使提醒邮件转发至不同的人。这不是非常的完美,但却容许我根据一定的规则发送提醒邮件给不同的人。
日程和日志。设置Google Calendar发送事件提醒。你可以创建一个名为事件(Event)的标签,创建一个过滤器使Calendar发送的提醒跳过收件箱放在这个标签下。现在,你不仅可以把你的项目事件放在一处(不再像以前一样分散在收件箱里),而且当你完成这个项目或工作后也不必去给它们添加标记,并且你还有了一个项目全过程进度的日志。
要做的事(To-dos)。这是一个普通的应用,你可以给自己发送一封需要做的工作的邮件,然后创建一个过滤规则:收件人和发件人都是你的信箱地址,并且使邮件都直接发送到To-dos标签下。这样你就可以在一个标签内看你的所有的“要做的事”。或许,你是个GTD爱好者,你可以为每个内容创建To-dos(如@工作,@家庭,@出差,@电话,等),通过创建不同的标签,发送邮件到 yourname+work@gmail.com(通过使用+号,你的Gmail可以有无限个地址),然后创建过滤规则让这些邮件转移到@work标签内,其他的同上。(注:GDT=Getting Things Done)
会话式邮件(Follow up)。如果你不是GTD爱好者,那么创建一个会话标签将是非常必要的。建立一个“包含字词”部分为“yourname+follow”的过滤器,并设置这里的邮件跳过收件夹直接存入“@follow”标签下。以后当你发送需要跟随后续内容的邮件时,在抄送地址里输入yourname+follow,这样这些邮件就会放入“@folow”标签中了。注意,你要每天检查一下这个标签,这样才能看到你的会话式邮件。
将垃圾邮件直接删除到已删除邮件。作为替代Gmail自身的垃圾邮件过滤功能(我们讨厌看到在垃圾邮件这个文件夹后跟着一个很大的数字),创建一个过滤器:在“包含字词”部分输入"is:spam"(点击下一步,Gmail会弹出一个警告,选择“是”即可),在选择操作部分,选择“删除”。以后垃圾邮件就会自动放到“已删除邮件”中了。
存档书签。如果你正在使用del.icio.us或其他的书签服务,你可以把它们存档在Gmail的一个标签下(如”Bokmarks”)。在像rssfwd.com这样的将Feed内容转发至Email服务的网站,输入你的书签的Feed地址,为它们创建一个过滤规则并存入“Bookmark”标签下。这样在Gmail强大的搜索过滤功能下,你的所有书签就都存放在一起了。
清理附件。你是不是跟我一样喜欢集中一次性删除旧邮件?在这个过程中我通常使用一些搜索命令,如“has:attachment”, 这样我可以方便地找到所有的大容量的邮件并删除他们。要让这个过程更加简单化,那就创建一个类似的过滤器吧。
多媒体文件。如果你收到大量的附有如音乐、视频、照片的多媒体文件的邮件,此时也可以创建一个过滤器来方便地找到它们。
视频文件:"filename:wmv | filename:mov";
音乐文件:"filename:mp3"。
图片文件:"filename:jpg | filename:gif"
文档文件:"filename:pdf | filename:doc"
备份。注册一个新的用来储存文件的Gmail帐号,使用"has:attachments"的过滤规则将所有含有附件的邮件都自动转发到你的第二个Gmail信箱里。这样下次再删除旧邮件时就不用担心后悔了。
新闻组和Feed。你可以为你订阅的新闻组创建一个过滤器,这样它们就不会塞满你的收件箱了。也可以把你订阅的Feeds更新转发到你的Gmail,当你阅读后这些内容会自动标记并存档。如今,你不但在任何地方都可以阅读它们,而且还可以搜索它们。
Bloggers。如果你正在经营一个博客,你可以通过过滤器将你博客的评论和Pingback自动存档于"blog"标签,这样你的收件夹就不会很快被这些邮件填满了。再把你博客统计报告自动归档在这个标签下,你博客的成功在这里就一收眼底了。
删除旧的已发送邮件。大多数情况下,没有理由要保留那些旧的已发送邮件。使用"before:2006/06/01 label:sent",动作为删除的过滤规则删掉这些旧邮件。每个月的时候,记得更新这个过滤规则中的日期。
禁止删除。有些邮件是不希望被删除的,比如那些来自孩子或老板的邮件,通过添加这些联系人的邮件地址创建一个过滤规则将它们移到“Nodelete”标签下。以后删除旧邮件或含有附件的邮件时就不必担心这些重要的邮件随那些垃圾一块被删掉了。
Flickr。创建一个过滤器将转发到Gmail的你的Flickr Feed自动存入一个标签内。现在,通过Gmail你的照片变得可以搜索了。你也可以创建过滤器接收来自某些tags或联系人Flickr更新提醒。
便签。给自己发送封邮件及时记下你在互联网上的发现、会议上的所得、书本上的感悟或者班级的讨论。使用过滤器将这些内容自动归档在一个标签下。如今,你可以搜索、存档并且在任何地方方便地取得这些内容。
Twitter。使用手机或聊天工具发送信息给Twitter(国内读者可使用饭否),在每条信息的开始加上一些关键字,如NOTE,TODO,BLOG,FOLLOW,等。转发你的Twitter Feed到Gmail,给每个类型的关键字创建一个过滤器(如,给note twitter创建标签为"Note"的过滤器)。这样通过twitter你可以使用手机发送你的便条,要做的事,提醒以及更多的内容给你的Gmail。
使用通配符。使用通配符(*)可以用来来找出那些来自某些公司的使用同一域名的的邮件。一个很好的利用就是使用通配符来跟踪自己在Amazon、eBay等网上商店的购物邮件。只需创建一个发件人如"*@amazon.com|*@ebay.com|*@paypal.com|*@barnesandnoble.com"的过滤规则即可。
以上20个技巧够实用吧,喜欢的话赶快去试试!不要忘记告诉你的朋友哦~~

How do I use these web browsers

Maxthon 1.6      The default browser for its maximum compatibility.

Maxthon 2.0      Just for its File Snifer function. Do not use it for regular surfing.

Firefox               Kind of major browser, just for text sites.

Opera                For pictures simply because it is very fast in loading those contents.

The World         Just for sina Blog.

 

Look, I have so many web browsers, and they serve me in different respects, although I need to change among them from time to time.

与百度支持者的讨论

        今天在我的新浪博客上看到一位匿名博友的留言,是对我去年写的一篇博文的评论,我把这条留言复制在下面,再做点评。

       这是我一年前的文章:无耻的百度。这位博友就是对这篇文章作出评价的。

1.我还不清楚,你有足够的证据吗?你能确定证据是可信的吗,可以说服人的吗?
2.捆绑Google Toolbar的软件比百度的多得多,dell电脑都装有,用户抱怨不断。另外,为什么百度流氓而Google不流氓?追溯谁先发明了这样的“工具条”,你会发现,百度是靠后的
3.版权问题已经通过协商解决,百度付给广告费,早就没有版权问题了。照此说来,用Google找到的MP3也都有版权问题?Sogou什么的也全部有问题,迅雷,BT,eMule,所有的P2P软件,都不要存在好了。
4.是百度在封锁吗?不知道技术内幕的不要乱说,sohu博客就没有百度来的流量,不是百度在封锁,而是sohu给的封锁。Google只要动一点手脚,就可以让你看到所谓“百度封锁Google”的假象,不要被迷惑。
至于Google,就一件抄袭词库的时间就可以让其名声扫地,证据确凿,Google开始还百般抵赖,足见其没有信用,用它的软件能放心吗

 

       第一条,百度于2000年在英属开曼群岛注册,2005年8月日在纳斯达克上市。我在NASDAQ上找到的关于百度的信息,http://www.nasdaq.com/asp/ExtendFund.asp?&kind=&mode=stock&symbol=BIDU&selected=BIDU&FormType=&mkttype=&pathname=&page=full

       左边的列表有多个选项,各位可以自己看。

       Yahoo! Finance中关于百度的内容,http://finance.yahoo.com/q/pr?s=BIDU

       以下是中文维基百科和英文维基百科关于百科的内容,我想这些较为中立的内容比我说的要全面多了。

      中文维基百科:百度:资本与架构

百度公司于1999年底在美国硅谷成立,创始人李彦宏持有美国绿卡,Baidu的启动资金是美国的风险投资,美资在Baidu中占有51%以上的份额。其竞争对手Google也曾收购了百度大约4%的股份[來源請求],一些人士称从某种意义上说百度是一家“美资公司”。

Baidu分为海外部分和在中国部分。海外部分一家在英属开曼群岛注册(Baidu.com,Inc),一家在英属维尔京群岛注册(Baidu Holdings Limited, 百度控股有限公司),这两家公司均为美资。随后Baidu在中国注册了两个子公司——Baidu Online Network Technology (Beijing) Co.,Ltd., 百度在线网络技术公司,简称“百度在线”和Baidu Netcom Science and Technology Co.,Ltd., 百度网络科技公司,简称“百度网络”),其中后者为中资公司。有分析人士说:注册这样的子公司是为了规避中国政府的关于外资不能进入新闻广告等领域的法规。

2005年6月,百度公司还在中国上海成立了第二个全资子公司——Baidu China Co.,Ltd.(百度中国有限公司,一般简称“百度中国”)。有业内人士认为,百度准确的说应该是一家由华人创办的、专注于在华业务的美资搜索引擎技术公司。

2006年年底,百度香港分公司成立。

2007年3月 百度從日本公司中奪回Baidu.jp域名,隨即發布百度日文搜索引擎百度檢索。正式進入日本市場。

http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%99%BE%E5%BA%A6

 

        英文维基百科:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baidu

 

        第二条,Google的工具栏不是强制安装,用户可以看得到提示,并可以在看到提示后选择安装与否。至于百度的超级搜霸就不说了,大家自己去搜吧。

        第三条,Google可不能下载MP3啊,搞清楚。关于百度的付费下载MP3问题,我还没找到相关的内容,日后补充。

        第四条,看月光的文章啊。SOHU的事我知道。

        最后,要特别强调,Google不是谷歌,谷歌不是Google,两者是有差别的。永远不要期望谷歌能像Google那样。输入法事件谷歌已经很丢脸了。这样的事就不会在Google身上发生。

 

 

另外,月光博客关于百度的文章也很不错,建议大家都看看。要知道,事实越说越清,真理越辩越明。由于在国内获取消息的渠道受限,所以,并不是所有网友都有机会得到最真实最客观的信息。希望大家对IT信息多加关注,用自己的头脑判断问题,并且积极去证明事情的真伪,不要轻易被别人蒙蔽。

Tried Twitter today

I got the first Twitter account and tried to post words (look, it is not articles, it is words) via Twitter. It is indeed fast. I think it is similar to a kind of micro-blog that you can post from minute to minute. In fact, if you post your blog from minute to minute, it is the same as Twitter. The difference is, the Twitter has the advantage of tacking-back.

Microsoft in hot water over Wikipedia edits

AP) -- Microsoft Corp. has landed in the Wikipedia doghouse after it offered to pay a blogger to change technical articles on the community-produced Web encyclopedia site.



While Wikipedia is known as the encyclopedia that anyone can tweak, founder Jimmy Wales and his cadre of volunteer editors, writers and moderators have blocked public-relations firms, campaign workers and anyone else perceived as having a conflict of interest from posting fluff or slanting entries. So paying for Wikipedia copy is considered a definite no-no.



"We were very disappointed to hear that Microsoft was taking that approach," Wales said Tuesday.



Microsoft acknowledged it had approached the writer and offered to pay him for the time it would take to correct what the company was sure were inaccuracies in Wikipedia articles on an open-source document standard and a rival format put forward by Microsoft.



Spokeswoman Catherine Brooker said she believed the articles were heavily written by people at IBM Corp., which is a big supporter of the open-source standard. IBM did not immediately respond to a request for comment.



Brooker said Microsoft had gotten nowhere in trying to flag the purported mistakes to Wikipedia's volunteer editors, so it sought an independent expert who could determine whether changes were necessary and enter them on Wikipedia.



Brooker said Microsoft believed that having an independent source would be key in getting the changes to stick -- that is, to not have them just overruled by other Wikipedia writers.



Brooker said Microsoft and the writer, Rick Jelliffe, had not determined a price and no money had changed hands -- but they had agreed that the company would not be allowed to review his writing before submission. Brooker said Microsoft had never previously hired someone to influence a Wikipedia article.



Jelliffe, who is chief technical officer of a computing company based in Australia, did not return an e-mail seeking comment.



In a blog posting Monday, he described himself as a technical standards aficionado and not a Microsoft partisan. He said he was surprised to be approached by Microsoft but figured he'd accept the offer to review the Wikipedia articles because he considered it important to make sure technical standards processes were accurately described.



Wales said the proper course would have been for Microsoft to write or commission a "white paper" on the subject with its interpretation of the facts, post it to an outside Web site and then link to it in the Wikipedia articles' discussion forums.



"It seems like a much better, transparent, straightforward way," Wales said.

How to Back Up Your Blogger Blog (FW)

There can be nothing worse than to login to Blogger one day and find you blogger blog gone, corrupted or deleted forever due to any unforseen error. Back up is very important. Here are a few simple ways to keep your Blogger blog safe and backed up….

Back up your Blogger Posts

  • Backup Your Posts - Bloggers Blogsend allows each of my blog posts to be automatically sent to my email address. So I have a back up of all my posts as individual emails. You can further create folders in your email account (as in Yahoo Mail) or apply labels (in Gmail), and create filters such that such emails can be collected in one place.
  • Back up your entire blogger blog - Bloggers provides detailed instructions to create a single file with all your posts which you may publish and then copy to your own computer for use as desired. Remember to save a copy of your existing template in a file on your computer as you will need to have it at hand after this process is completed. This is good for a one time backup, but is cumbersome to do if you back up very frequently. Also you might mess up some setting and disbale your blog is not done right.
  • Try third party back up tools - like the HTTrack Web site copier for Windows users and Webgrabber for Mac users. Each of these applications will create a fully working, interlinked local copy of your blog for browsing offline and easily allow you to back up. Remember it will take considerable time and internet bandwidth if you have a huge blog.

Back up Your Template

  • Back up the template whenever you change it. Just copy and paste the entire template code into any simple text editor like Notepad or Wordpad and save file with name like ‘myblog-date.txt’. After a while you will have a series of such files organized by date. If for some reason your blog goes away, just copy and paste the teplate back into Blogger and republish.
  • If you have lost your template partly or fully - learn how to restore your blog template code and then back it up.

Back Up Comments

  • Blogger has an option to send you an email when someone leaves a comment on your blog. This is located in Setting > Comments option in Blogger. This enables you to collect all your comments as individual emails, much like the blogsend posts emails mentioned above. Then you can file them all together as labels or in a email folder.
  • If you moderate comments, you can get all your comments as emails pending your approval. This email address can again be entered in Setting > Comments. If you do not want to save rejected comments as emails and recieve only published comments - then you can keep the comment moderation email address blank, while filling up the Comment Notification Address.
  • If you use Haloscan Comments instead, then anyway your Blogger comments are off and Haloscan is keeping track of backing up your comments. I am using Blogger comments featured now with comment moderation, word verification captchas to combat comment spam.

Make blog back ups a habit and you will remember this post when it saves your blog on a bad day!
