Issues with set up Rules in Outlook 2003
A coule of questions for Outlook 2003:
1) What is the limitation of number of email address I can add to a rule? I set up rules to move email from specific email address to a specific folder. When I tried to add more email address to rule #1 and hit Apply, I got this message "One or more rules could not be uploaded to Exchange Server and have been deactivated. This could be because some of the parameters are not supported or there is insufficient space to store all of your rules". 2) I moved some of the email address in the mentioned rule #1 to rule #2, I do not get the above message any more after hit Apply button, but emails from these email address was not moved by rule #2 to its specified folder. Instead, they remain in the Inbox. I have 6 Rules enabled. What is the limitation I am facing? Is there a limitation for the number of rules can be set? 3) Will update to Outlook 2007 resolve the 2 above issues? Thank you! |

Issues with set up Rules in Outlook 2003
Rules are limited by the size that is allowed on the Exchange server.
Exchange 2003 and previous support 32KB. Exchange 2007 supports up to 256KB of rules and is by default limited to 64KB. The limitations are at Exchange level and not at Outlook level. Upgrading Outlook will not help you with this. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- "cubicle" wrote in message ...
