Is there a way to do this? I set up a rule but it seems one can only assign
the category only _after_ sending the email. It would be nice if emails
could have a category assigned as a default beforehand.

Thanks.

You can set categories via rules for incoming messages.

I'm striking out today g.

The difficulty is that the situation I'm looking for isn't covered. The
category gets assigned _after_ I send, not before. So the messages are only
affected here at my end, while I'm the sender. So by setting up a default
category then the messages will always have that. The rules also don't seem
to work every time. And I'm no longer fond of making up templates for
Outlook. I have too many templates for Word and Excel for work as it is.

Anyway, one last stab before giving up for now.

Thanks. D
