Re: Outlook Rules Problem

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Brian,

Thanks again for a clear response. I will consider my options, but do you
have any advise on the issue below?

I have a rule which works fine and there is exception which
states do not perform action if the sender is in my contact folder. I would
like to add an additional folder to the rule (from Business Contact Manager)
if that is possible but can not figure out if that is possible.

Well, you could reduce the level of the junk filter processing and get
more messages to your Inbox, but this could lead to a higher level of junk
in the Inbox.

can I have a rule run upon receipt for the junk mail folder or there is
something called custom action which I know nothing about.

The only folder where rules will run automatically is the Inbox. Even if
you created one with a custom action, it would run only on the Inbox and
after the junk mail filter was done.

You could consider disabling the built-in junk filter altogether and use
an add-in like http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/
