Setting Up Message Rules
In Outlook Express
Here is another helping hand tip for all you ladies
For those on Outlook Express.
To help you with all your email groups I have a great trick for you
Set up folders in your inbox of the different groups you belong to.
Make sure you put all into the Inbox and not inside each other,
unless they are related groups
Then
Go to tools then to message rules and
set up folders for your different groups.
Set it up like this
Go to Tools, Message Rules
Select Mail
Then New
You will get this screen
Then check off
Where the Subject line contains specific words
Then down below in block 3 it will be highlighted what words to put in
Put in for example "VAH" and hit OK
Then go back to block 2 that asks you what action to take and tell it to send
it to "Move to a specific folder" and it will show all your folders.
Clik on the correct one
and hit apply now
Then apply now again in the box that comes up
and then OK
Then when the mail from that group comes in, it will go to that folder
You will find this a wonderful aid and a lot less confusing
Next set your mail like this
Go to view and then current view
and then group in conversation
Then view and sort by and then by received.
This will open a whole new world for you as
you will suddenly have all your mail groups going
to their own folders!
