Is there a way to change the email color or the icon before the email when a
new email comes in .. only from ppl not from *@mywork.com ?



Thanks
 
I'm not sure if this is quite what you're looking for
but it will give you a little information on how to go
about it. These instructions were written using
Outlook 2000 as the model:

OLK - Color SMTP msgs

Click "Organize"
Click "Using Colors"
Click "Automatic Formatting"
Click "Add a Rule"
Call it something like SMTP
Click "Condition" and select the "Advanced" tab.
Click the "Fields" button, select "All mail fields", "Changed By".
Choose "contains" as the condition and enter "Internet Mail Service" as the
value. Click "Add", then "OK"
Click the "Font" button. Select something obvious.

You can easily see which email was originated via the Internet.

You can try setting up an Automatic Formatting rule...use the Advanced tab
and add the criteria "E-mail account does not contain mywork.com". (Note --
I don't think the E-mail Account field was available prior to Outlook 2002;
if you're using an earlier version you may have to see if you can figure out
some other criteria to use for this rule.)

If you need help getting started with Automatic Formatting, search the
Outlook help file.
