Microsoft Outlook rules can automatically organize incoming email, reduce clutter, and make important messages easier to find.

Create a Simple Outlook Rule

Start with a representative message, right-click it, and open the Rules options. Choose the condition Outlook should recognize and the action it should take, such as moving messages from a particular sender into a designated folder.

Key Takeaways

• Create rules from an existing message to save time.
• Use clear folders for clients, projects, newsletters, or vendors.
• Keep rules simple so you understand where messages are going.
• Review and update rules when your workflow changes.
