Are character strings on a message rule case-sensitve?
I want to set up a message rule to block spam mail. I've already created a
list of keywords, but I would like to know whether OE treats "watch" is the same as "WATCH" as well as "Watch". Please help. Jimmy Ho |

Bruce,
Creating_Rules_in_Outlook_Express shows how to create a move to folder rule. There is no mention of adding Stop processing more rules, so that site could be better. outlook%20express%20notes.htm was missing all of the pictures. -- Ron Sommer "Bruce Hagen" wrote in message ...

TY. I probably haven't clicked on any of these links in a couple of years.
