filter rule for attachments

Is there a way to create a filter rule that moves emails to a folder if they contain a specific type of attachment (e.g. .gpx)?

Hello @Anon170592 All of our email filters available are found through the webmail site. The link below goes through how to set one up.

If there is an option for specific attachments it would be under the filter categories "content" or "attachment".

Thx for your reply. The filter categories "content" or "attachment" do not work for selecting specific types of attachments.

Happy to help, Anon170592! Just to confirm if you click Add condition to choose the criteria you want to filter, does it show attachment from the list?

Add condition does include attachment, but after selecting attachment the only choices are exists and does not exist.

That would be the only place to add a specific attachment to a filter. So if those are the only options then it not an option with our email. Everything in the article provided is our filter and forwarding options.
