I wrote a rule to move all messages to a "Who's This?" folder unless the
sender is in my Contacts folder. But within my "Contacts" folder, I have a subfolder. The rule wizard lets me choose either my main Contacts folder, or the subfolder, but not both. Is there a workaround? What I'm actually trying to accomplish is to Whitelist my newsletter subscriptions. If I add them to my address book, the rule described above works fine. But I don't want to clutter my main Contacts folder with "people" like ." Any advice, either on a fix for my rule, or on how you handle this problem, would be welcome. Thanks in advance. |

Two rules won't work, because I want to move the message UNLESS the sender is
in EITHER of my address books. When I choose an "except" clause, I only get one choice. "Brian Tillman" wrote: Two rules. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

Apply this rule after the message arrives sender is in "Address Book One" and on this machine only stop processing more rules Apply this rule after the message arrives sender is in "Address Book Two" and on this machine only stop processing more rules Apply this rule after the message arrives move it to "Who's This" The first two rules will cause the message to remain in the Inbox if it is in either the first contacts folder or the second conacts folder. The last rule will move all remaining messages to the "Who's This" folder. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
