Rules and Alterts in Microsoft outlook 2007 using wild cards
Define your rule more specifically... for instance, if you use "sent through
the specified account" and make it @googlegroups.com (no asterisk), it will probably work better than the generic you are using. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Please note that the "sent through the specified account" options is meant for choosing ONLY my own accounts for sending the mails. I need to apply the rule after receiving the mails. Tried to specify " in "from people or distribution list" but it is also not working.

Tried to specify " in "from people or distribution list" but it is also not working. Brian, I am using Outlook 2007, just upgraded my PC from XP to Windows 7, and I am having an issue with one of my rules. The one that uses Use the "with specific words in the sender's address. This rule worked fine prior to my upgrade, and I have about 5-6 other rules and they all seem to work fine but this one. It seems to me like it is having trouble getting the " info from the sender's address, like it is only searching on the display name (i.e. "Smith, Joe"). The rule has not changed, the version of outlook has not changed, and we are connecting to the same mailbox on the same exchange server. Any ideas? Thanks, Jason
