I've assigned a category to a number of contacts. I want to create a rule to check the category a contact is assigned and if there is a match do something.

So far I have not been able to find a way to do this through Outlook 2010. Does anyone know a way to do this?

Thanks.
 
While i hesitate to say its impossible, it will be very difficult to do. Because you need to check each contact, it will be slow. Better would be to use separate contacts folders and create rules for contacts in specific address books - but even this is not perfect as its hard to have one contact in multiple contacts folders.
