Hi,

I'm moving from Outlook Express, on an old machine, to a Outlook on a new
machine. How can I move
the mail rules in my outlook express account mail rules to the new machine
under Outlook?


Thanks

Ran

Outlook does a pretty good job of importing your rules

from Express. HOWEVER, CAUTION, I have yet to figure out,
if Outlook is supposed to be so much more powerful, why
Outlook cannot handle the rules exactly the same way.
What I mean is that in Express, I had several rules where
the criteria were "either/or" conditions. When Outlook
ports them over, they become "all/and" conditions.
Outlook doesn't offer an "either/or" option, and I'm
killing myself trying to figure it out. The closest way
of doing this, and annoying at the same time, is
duplicating my rules to filter one way and then the other.
