How to set message rules in Outlook Express

How did you ever survive without Message
rules? I really don’t know how I did. They are used to filter and organise your
email messages into specific folders that you name. They also block or delete
unwanted mail. How fantastic is that? In this article I will explain how to set
some simple rules that you can start with. I will use this example: My friend
sends me only funny emails and her email address is Caily@hotmail.com.
To send all her emails to a folder named
funny do this:

    Open Outlook Express.
 
  Go to the menu at the top. Choose
  Tools>message rules>mail, then choose new.
 
  There will be 4 boxes to edit. Go to the
  first one and select the box>where the from line contains people.
 
  Then go to the 2nd box to edit. Select>move
  to a specific folder.
 
  Go to the third box to edit. Click the link
  that says contains people.
  This is where you put her email address Caily@hotmail.com and click add then
  ok. Keep adding more address’s if you want them to go to the same folder.
 
  Still in third box. Click on the link that
  says Specific Folder. This is where you select a folder for it to go to
  or make a new folder named Funny. Then press ok.
 
  Go to the Fourth box to edit. Here you name
  the message rule. For example you could call it Funny items.
 
  Your done!!! Press ok. Now next time an
  email comes in from Caily@hotmail.com  it will go to the folder called
  funny.
If I decided that her emails weren’t funny
and I wanted to delete them I would do this:
 
  Do steps 1,2,3 from above.
 
  Then go to the second box to edit. Select
  delete.
 
  Go to the third box to edit. Click the link
  that says contains people.
  This is where you put her email address Caily@hotmail.com and click add then
  ok.
 
  Go to the Fourth box to edit. Here you name
  the message rule. For example you could call it rubbish or junk.
 
  Press ok. Next time an email comes in from
  Caily@hotmail.com  it will be deleted.
You can get a lot more technical and choose
to do all sorts of things with this little trick. I suggest you try a few
different combinations to see how it works. You can even set the rule to auto
respond  to certain emails. This proves to be a valuable business tool.
