I am trying to filter my email so that email in virtual accounts for example info@mydomain.com and sales@mydomain.com is sent directly to my deleted folder. My domain provider allows any number of different names in front of @mydomain.com. I need to keep other messages which are sent to othername@mydomain.com.

I can't make rule "through specified account" as I only have one domain account and doing this would also delete other messages for this domain.

I have tried using for example "with info@mydomain.com in the receipients address" but this doesn't work.

Any help would be appreciated please as I am being swamped by spam.
 
Try setting up a rule to check messages when they arrive that uses the "with specific words in the message header" option. Then enter the email addresses you want checked. This rule will scour the entire internet header for whatever you enter. I use this type of thing all the time to separate mail.
