Question
How do I use rules in Outlook?
Answer
Rules help you manage e-mail by performing certain actions whenever you get or send an e-mail that matches certain criteria. Generally, they either help organize your messages or notify you when a set of conditions has been met. For example, rules can:
Move messages from a particular recipient into a new folder
- Use keywords to categorize messages based on their contents
- Apply visual flags to messages to make it easier to find them
- Notify you by sound or by a pop-up a message when you receive a particular message
- Automatically color code (using a category) certain recipients emails
- You can set rules to run automatically or run them manually whenever needed.
- You can also add exceptions to rules so that it only applies to the right messages.
