Hi, yes first in my humble opinion outlook just is a better program then
outlook express. And the function in outlook express does not work as I
described. It works that way in express and saves me lot of time each
day.

hi,
Sounds helpful. Do you mean that this function is available on Outlook
but
not on Outlook Express? In other words, by "versus," you meant "rather
than, or "as opposed to"?
Thanks. Just want to be sure.
no

Hi, the easiest way is to use outlook verses express and sort all
messages by subject and so you see it in a tree like structure "your
advice you decide then to read the messages under that subject or not.

May I add that I think the main reason filtering messages in this way
wouldn't be useful is that the filter would have to use subject lines as
its criteria, and you couldn't possibly predict every thread that you
wouldn't want to read messages in, nor even how someone might write the
subject line for that thread, etc.
Just imagine you're using this idea to avoid having to even see messages
you don't care for. Every time you encountered a few messages about
something, say "Your Advice," that you decided wasn't to your taste,
you'd have to go into the Outlook Express filter rules menu, a menu
that's particularly difficult for screen reader users to deal with
without asking for help over and over again, spend time setting up a
rule to channel every post with the subject line "Your Advice" into your
Deleted Items folder. And then, after all that, someone might change
the wording of the subject line for some reason and... In other words,
this wouldn't be exactly the easiest way to deal with your annoyance,
nor give you the sense of control that must feel as if it's slipping
away when messages you don't like keep coming into your Inbox.
My take, and not everyone would agree: It's only an inbox message
list. it's not hurting you. by which I mean you do not& have to read
anything you don't want to. I know people have certain habits for
dealing with their
mail, and I believe this is what's at fault. Please let me clarify:
If you use the manual method of simply arrowing down the list and
choose to open messages one at a time, then you can just delete the ones
whose subject lines don't appeal to you. But please note: I've noticed
that a number of people on this list prefer to go through the new email
in their Inboxes not this way, but by opening the first new message and
then deleting from within it, whereupon the next new message opens, etc.
If this is how you go through your new email, then the choice has been
taken away from you whether to open a message and hear at least some of
it before getting angry. And if that's what you find so offensive, then
it would be better to go through the mail by just arrowing up and down
your Inbox list, not deleting messages
from within so that the next message automatically opens and you have to
hear what you don't want to hear, and then feel overwhelmed and helpless
and start getting angry. Just don't do the mail that way. Arrow down,
open a message that interests you, hit Escape to let it close, then
delete it if you want, then see what the next message is. I mean the
next message listed, not its contents. To those who are very attached
to doing this in the more automated way and resent the suggestion, all I
can say, in a kindly, cheerful tone, is, look, it's just an extra press
of the Escape key and then the Enter key this way. It won't kill you.
It certainnly won't feel as bad as having a million emails you hate
hearing keep opening and
talking to you.
Hope this helps.

Yes, he can create a message rule to have all messages he's not
interested in go to another folder but then he has to be somewhat like a
prophet! How do you know today what you will encounter tomorrow? If he
excludes a certain topic, for example, like word today what happens if
tomorrow or next week he encounters a word problem? Judith

Hi Judith!
yah, you are right. But, if he using Ms. Outlook or Outlook Express,
then, he can create a message rule for him to exclude all e mails that
he don't want to go to his Inbox. What do you think?

Dave, Sometimes there is so much repetitiveness because not all people
read
every word sent to their in box. Many, like myself, delete those
messages
whose subject doesn't apply to their needs. This is the way all
support
lists that I have been on operate. If some one has in their subject
line a
subject that does not apply to your hard ware, software or program
that you
are not using you can just delete it, there is no reason to read
hundreds of
messages a day. Judith
