Hi everyone,
I'm fairly basic when it comes to using Outlook as I normally stuck to web based clients and minimal organization. Then I got my new desk job and well, now it's a matter of learning a ton of new info.
Anyway, I have a lot of sub folders (in an archive) for which to organize my e-mails and at first I created a bunch of rules that would place them in the correct folders for me. What I found though is as new e-mail came in, they would automatically be sorted into those folders making it difficult to keep up with new unread messages, and so I just had to delete all the rules.
Now what I would like is to make rules that follow the same instructions but ONLY when I manually run the rules. That way new e-mails will filter into my inbox and once I'm up to date, I just run the rules and they get sorted. Is this possible?
