    Add a new filter. Set it to any name you like. Under Set rules, click From to open up the menu. Then click the pull down menu and choose "contains". Underneath it add the name of the domain, e.g. "example.C0M". But don't type w-w-w or h-t-t-p with it, just the name "example" and .C0M. Then follow the rest of the steps in the article t move it to the Inbox Folder and click Save.
