Hello Dave, when you say "specify messages from specific people " what do you mean? I have thought about this and I thought that will I have to add them to my contact list. Or is there something else I can do. And by the way, I am using windows Live mail. not outlook express I have a windows vista PC and that's changed to Windows mail. Anyway Any more infomation will be great!

Daniel, Assuming you're talking about OE, and it sounds like you are. For this list you'll need to specify messages from specific people and then use the exact format of the following: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Then as usual set the rule to move it to a particular folder, and when prompted, create a new folder with a name of your choice. Give the rule a name, as usual, etc. etc. Since you've already done one for sib-access (like I have) this rule is pretty similar.

Hello everyone, I would like some advice please. the subject should say it all but I will explain. With out beating round the bush, I want to create a message rule but 1st I need to create a fouldor and insure that everyone on this list goes into it when a message comes through from this list. This is because I don't want it to clutter up my inbox and it can be quite fustrating I guess. lol you could call it an organization skill. But how do I do this? I have joined one already called sib-access and when I created the message rule for it I relied on the subject line to be the main part of the rule to reconise and there for it sends it into the fouldor I created for that which was called "sib-access" But having joined this list for a couple of days now, I have notice that there isn't such a name that comes up when ever somebody sends a message with part of the subject line containing key words to define the message rule for the foulder. I hope I have explained enough all though I created a message rule for my sib-access list its still new to me! Any Help will be great! Best Wishes Daniel
