Any one know if there is a way to automatically create folders in outlook? Or automatically create rules?

Yes, to creat folders in outlook itself, or even use the side tool bar/icon area to have folders linked to other drives or areas.

Bill, to answer your question. I would assume the answer is in performing an action or creating a script to perform the action. I, however, am not versed in that.

Do you use the "Navigation Pane?"

Click on View, check "Navigation Pane."

With the "Mail" tab clicked, you will see two areas (probably), one is Favorite Folders, and the other is All Mail Folders, that is where you can creat many Outlook Mail Folders and Name them anything you want. But, your admin for your mail server might hate you :sonicjay:

That is why I have created another folder that is linked to a personal folder on another drive, in that same "All Mail Folders" area.

it's been a long long time since I played with the server end, but I thought you could create a folder on the server and then do the click/drag technique like excel and have it auto-increment folder creations. Don't know what you'd do for rules though.

 

[biohazardbill]

Probably could have done that however I am sure the IT team would not do it for me...
