Abstract

A system and method for filtering messages in a messaging system is described. The system includes a user interface configured to receive user input for defining one or more message filters. Each message filter specifies predefined criteria by which a message is to be stopped. The system further includes a filter module comprising the one or more filters, and a queue connected with the filter module for queuing messages stopped according to one of the one or more filters. In a method, messages in the messaging system are stopped according to predefined criteria. Stopped messages are restarted according to a job executed by the messaging system.
