For instance, the Win-Tips list generates a lot of mail, would it be more efficient to have it one of the first rules processed? Or does it not matter what order they are processed in. I know I have to have the "if it doesn't meet any of the other rules" rule set to run last, but I'm not sure about all the others. I have all my rules set up to stop processing any more rules if it meets the criteria of the rule. Thanks, Christine ************************************************************ * You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to=20 mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject line.
