Hi
I have a filter set up on my Outlook e-mail which does the following:
- Check mail when it arrives
- Move messages to 'EXTERNAL MAIL' folder
- Except where 'Sender' is in 'GLOBAL ADDRESS LIST'.
Great, all my external e-mail is filtered from my inbox. This means that I can focus on my inbox and deal with important stuff before I sift through all the junk in my external mail folder.
But then I get external e-mail that I want to stay in my inbox (eg. From my wife!).
So I have added another exception 'Except if from 'mywife@myhouse.com' or 'myfriend@hishouse.com' etc.
What I would really like to do is have exceptions that say:
- Except where 'Sender' is in 'GLOBAL ADDRESS LIST' or 'CONTACTS'.
That way as soon as I add someone to my contacts, their e-mail doesn't get filtered out. I can then see an e-mail and think 'Oh, I don't want that one filtered next time', add the sender to my contacts and job done.
However, it seems taht you can only have ONE 'except if sender is in specified address book' exception.
Does anyone know a way round this?
Thanks
Ben
