Default message rules in outlook express

coupla q's about message rules.

Can I do "create rule from message" on several messages at once?
I want to move all messages from a lot of different people into
a particular folder. Is there a fast way to highlight several messages
and create a single rule covering all senders.

Is it possible to use wildcards in message rules? If I regularly get
messages from

TIA

No to both, I think. You might consider using Edit | Find and then select
the search results from that and move them to a folder to supplement what
you can do with rules.

The answer to both is no, but you don't need a wildcard.
You can make a rule using @company.com .

Why not just create a rule then add the names of the other people to the
same rule? Yeah it will take longer, but i'll do what you need

Right-click the message to create the rul & choose create rule from message,
choose your criteria & then click OK

Go to TOOLS menu, MESSAGE RULES, MAIL, double-click the message rule just
created & then you just add the other e-mail addresses
