i recently upgraded to microsoft outlook 200 from outlook express 5. I imported everything from outlook express to microsoft outlook(including message rules). The problem is that none of the rules that i imported seem to work in outlook 2002, though they are all visible in the rules wizard window. also in outlook express while makimg a rule i could choose 'or' operator instead of 'and' operator so that even if any one of the conditions specified in the rule is true it would work. This helped me to filter messages from or to a specific person using the same rule. That is if i receive a mail from a contact say 'robin' and also if i send a mail to the same contact 'robin' i can filter both the sent message and the received message to and from the same person ithe same rule. So anyone please provide me help as to how i can run my imported rules and how i can make new rules similar to my old ones in outlook express.
 
Rules are often lost in during an import or upgrade like this. Which version
of Outlook is it you have?
The Activities tab of a Contact record might suit your needs. Search Folders
in Outlook 2003 might also be a choice.
