How about using Category rather than Flag. After selecting the Tools/Rules
and alerts drop-down menu, under step 1 there is an option to assign a
category to the rule. The Category column can be dragged and dropped
anywhere on the header line of the mailbox window.

Hope that helps.

BTW I'm surprised you don't seem to be able to specify a colour for emails
from a specific person ;(

Subject: [mso] Outlook 2003 question

Hi, 
 
I recently changed to Outlook 2003 (SP3) for my email client. I'm trying to
duplicate as closely as possible the 'look' of my inbox page with what I
previously had when using Outlook Express. One of the things Outlook Express
allowed that Outlook 2003 apparently doesn't is the ability to color code
inbound emails using rules. 
 
I am using colored flags in Outlook to try to achieve the same thing but I
can't figure out how to move the 'Sort by Flag Status' from the far right
hand column of the inbox to the far left hand column of the inbox - which is
where I would like it. 
 
Any ideas? 
 
Thanks, 
 
Yurt Ng
