0 lazydesert Posted June 24, 2002 Share Posted June 24, 2002 tools>rule wizard make sure the correct folder is selected, and make sure the rule is checked. it 'should' work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 CustardFD Posted June 24, 2002 Share Posted June 24, 2002 If you are using the rules wizard, make sure that the 'turn on this rule' box is checked on the last setup screen for the rule. EDIT: Or just make sure its checked in the rules list. Why did it take lazydesert to remind me that was there? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 danbalsh Posted June 25, 2002 Author Share Posted June 25, 2002 right.... It's fixed now, i had forget to make sure they were checked to work :cheeky: One more question... Is there a way to create a rule that will only put email in the "Inbox" folder if the contact is in my address book? Just a though. Thanks for the time guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 CustardFD Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 Yup :) In the 'Which condition(s) do you want to check?' screen, the 2nd from the bottom option is 'sender is in specified address book'. Just specify your address book :ninja: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
