This is EXACTLY the same Situation than mine! But Iīve got much more
folders:
Iīve got some Folders for Newsletters, wich I do not read frequently, but
which
I try to archive for searching in it. And I have about 200 Folders for
Friends,
Familys and Clients. And when I used only Outlook I had a rule for every
Situation
and everything worked like I want it to work. I donīt understand why I canīt
use
for my needs some rules locally stored in Outlook and some in this too small
storage in exchange. For my needs the change to Exchange is a large step
back...
