Creating a Rule
Rules are powerful tools that help you manage your e-mail messages by performing specific actions automatically. When you create a
rule, Outlook takes the action specified in the rule when a message arrives in your Inbox or when you send a message. You can use
rules to automatically:
•
Organize your messages: For example, move all incoming messages
that have the word “Picnic” in the subject to a Picnic folder.
•
Create a notification: Play a sound when you receive an e-mail from
your boss.
There are two different ways to create a rule:
•
By example: Create a rule based on an e-mail message. Simply select
the message that contains the sender, subject, or recipient you want to
use in the rule.
•
Using the Rules Wizard: You can create a rule based on a template
from the Stay Organized or Stay Up to Date collections of templates.
Or, you can start with a blank rule and let Outlook walk you through the
entire process of creating a rule using all your own conditions and
actions.
First let’s look at the easiest way to create a rule—by example.
1. Click the Mail button in the Navigation Pane.
2.
Click the Home tab on the Ribbon and click the Rules button in the
Move group.
A list of options for creating rules appears. In Outlook 2010, options for creating Always Move rules based on sender or recipient
appear by default.
If you want to create a different kind of rule, you can use the Create Rule dialog box.
3. Select Create Rule .
The Create Rule dialog box appears.
Other Ways to Create a Rule:
Right-click the message you want to base the rule on, select Rules
from the contextual menu, and select the appropriate option or
Create Rule .
4. Select condition(s) for the rule.
Choose from From, Subject contains, or Sent To conditions. The rule
will apply only when you receive e-mail that satisfies all the selected
conditions.
