E-Mail Rules

[Guest]

I need some assistance in changing my e-mail rules. I have attempted to edit
the contence of my rules and I can not delete of turn off any rules. Does
anyone know where the rules are stored so I can delete and start over?

You didn't provide any configuration info here to help you troubleshoot. At
least post your version of Outlook, your mail account type and what EXACTLY
doesn't work; steps to reproduce, where you get stuck etc...

To answer your question; Rules are being stored in the mailbox itself.

You can check in the help section for "Outlook file locations" and you will
see where are the files you look for.

In this case rules are stored in the
drive:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook

rules has an extension like *.rwz
but you do not have to delete it, you can modify it. See changing rules
under help.
good luck!

No, rules aren't stored as rwz-files but can be exported as rwz-files for
backup purposes only.
