Re: outlook should let me move emails from sent to a specific folder



No, not at 5 am. But of course I don't get to see what time you post, as I
see my local time only (it was 11.01 am). I have to assume that you post
when you feel up to it.

Also, you assumed that I was the original poster, twice, and I wasn't.

Given the context in which the original poster posted (MS's suggestions
form), I think his post was 100% clear, and that your reply was abrupt ("Not
true...........Your rule is not constructed correctly.").

Like you say, give us a break - we're only asking questions.
