Best Outlook tutorial ever

[@emonymph6911]

Protip... ALWAYS DO OUTLOOK RULES AND FOLDER RE-ARRANGEMENT in the BROWSER VERSION of outlook, that way it syncs across all your outlook installations without having to backup. The backups don't always work when they release new versions of outlook I was burned that way once, never again.... I don't touch rules outside the cloud version of outlook. Kevin you should make a video on this as it is way harder to navigate and find how to do rules in outlook browser login version.

The whole tone and lunch being more urgent than the customer falling into a chocolate river is hilarious. Then there's the constant jabbing at the newsletter guy, the automated question back to the newsletter guy made me lose it. 13:13

[@Thearyshare]

Very informative tutorial. Thanks, Kevin😍😍😍

How to make a rule received from the Group mailbox and move it to specific folder..i tried a lot but nothing worked. It just apply the rules received from individual email not for group mailbox

[@kidszone9890]

[@eshurtz78]

[@sandrasomerville2998]

Hi Kevin, thanks for the video. I want to set a rule so that emails from a specific person move to a designated folder 1 or 2 weeks AFTER receipt of said email. I've done some searching and can't see where this is possible. Is that the case?

[@clane1721]

Kevin, is there a way to set up rules in outlook for a shared inbox?

[@ryanf7114]

Hi Kevin, as always, your videos are extremely helpful and easy to understand for users of all levels. A huge thank you! Rules have always been a huge help in keeping my inbox somewhat clean and I know I could always use some improvement. Regarding the client side vs server(cloud) ones, do the aspects of the rules that can be done in the server still happen, such as moving it to the right folder, or does the rule just not happen until the Outlook client is open? If that is the case would it be useful to create 2 separate rules, one that will always happen and the other only if you have the Outlook client open. Just a thought, thank you again!

[@NarciGH]

Wow, this tutorial was amazing! Thanks for sharing such helpful content. I was wondering if you could help me out to know if it's possible to create a rule to categorize emails that come as attachments (. msg file). Specifically, I receive emails where users attach other emails, and I want to categorize them based on the sender of the attached email (the main sender of the .msg file). Let me provide an example to clarify: Let's say a user sends me an email with an attachment. This attachment is another email that they received from a different person or company. My question is, can I create a rule in my email client to automatically categorize the sender mentioned inside the attached email? Essentially, I want to automate the process of categorizing emails based on the sender information contained within the attached emails. Any insights on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi Kevin, I have a question regarding the rule. Does this rule work with a shared inbox as well? I have set up a rule for shared inbox, but for some reason, when a new email arrives, it doesn't automatically move to the particular folder that I selected for the rule. Can you please able to help me with it?

Love your videos as a new watcher. Wonder if any of your subjects contain the setting up of custom ribbons. This not from the professional field but just an avid user of Outlook. Thanks for all your work to teach us.

[@carmenlee8241]

Hi Kevin, your video is very useful. I have a question on auto fwd of email to another person's email. I had set a rule that if the subject of an incoming mail hit a specific wording, the email will fwd to a designated email. How can I confirm if the rule work and the email had been fwded？ I can't find the fwded email in my out box. Where to check the record of fwded email？

Hi Kevin, thanks for your very interesting and helpful videos. I'm a big fan. Is there a possibility to set up a rule depending on my calendar information. If there is an appointment in my calendar, then the rule is active, if there is empty space the rule is deactivated. I couldn't find any solution for this online.

[@eniolaolaniran184]

Hi Kevin, thanks for your support to self development. I will really like to undo a rule and send all emails back to my big inbox. How can I do so

[@lusifortripathy5610]

Thanks for the video, I want to know - the mail should get deleted if "2 specific words" are there in the mail body, how to do it ? Suppose in the mail body 1st word is "Hello" & 2nd word is "Bye" - if this condition satisfies then only it will delete the mail otherwise if only one word is there then it will not delete... Please suggets.

[@tfoe1625]

[@dianaestigarribia5704]

hi Kevin, can you add a tutorial on how to tips for delegates on how to better organized meeting notifications, calendar invites, etc. moving it to a folder would be great, except not sure how to

[@evancemakundi8544]

Hi Kevin! When setting the rule "except where my name is in the to or cc box" does it affect mails sent to group mails?

[@ronaldalterman1158]

Hi Kevin. Great video. Thank you. I have a question for you. Using your example, what if you don't want to receive the newsletter, but you would want to see any responses from the newsletter your company. How would you move (or delete) the original message, but not move any comments? Say that the original rule is sent to distribution and you would want to delete the message, but not delete any of the replies to that message.

[@paulstubbs6268]

Great video Kevin 👍🏻

[@alelisalazar]

Hi Kevin, thanks for this nice video! When I added rules to move messages to specific folders, I don't see the envelop icon on my Outlook taskbar anymore. Did this ever happen to you?

Hi Kevin, my question is about using Outlook. When attaching a contacts business card to an EMAIL I am forwarding, why does Microsoft not have a search option? When you have lots of contacts it's really hard to find the business card. I have to manually scroll thru 100s of contacts. Is there an easy way to do this? If I'm unclear let me know and I'll try to be a little more concise with my descriptions. Thank you

[@Mr.Riffian]

Will the rules be copied to the app version of Outlook? On my iPad I don’t see the rules option in the app version of Outlook. Could I just set things up in the desktop version and have it copied to all my portable devices with the Outlook app installed on it?

[@scolio-fit99]

I have a question here Mr. Kevin it is kind of important hope to hear soon from you.. My outlook rules got corrupted somehow as I started using outlook on two laptops simultaneously. Could you help me here with settings which would enable me to make rules run on a particular selected laptop only. And other laptop no rules to work. I need to make rules work on one of the two laptops where archive folder is setup. thanks

[@dudermaster]

Hi Kevin Question - Can I create a rule in following way: Email with the subject which contain word "Mother" and word "Home" move to folder : IMPORTANT I try this and I saw that only OR condition is available, there is no AND condition. Thanks in advance

[@geoffphillips5293]

Unfortunately, the latest Outlook looks nothing like this, and rules, when you can find them (... in the top) don't seem to bring up any options.

[@danieldominguezbender]

Excellent video!! (What did Nestor to you that you hate him so much :D.)

[@inachu]

One major tip to know about rules in Outlook is this..... MS Office Outlook cloud version is not 100% compatible when dealing with rules. If you deleted all your rules and recreated them and they still do not work then delete them. Close Outlook then open MS Edge and type in Outlook and login via the web browser then setup the rules inside Outlook in the web browser then it will be working 100%.

[@adamrubinson6875]

I don't have a "rules" option when I right-click the mouse. I think I must have a different/newer version of outlook. I don't like it because now I have no idea how to create a rule...

Aren't there in outlook such a rule that when you responded to the e-mail and the recipient writes you back again, this mail automatically goes to the same persons category who responded in the first place?

How do I create a rule to move emails that contain either "30-Day" in the sender's address or "Bella" in the subject? I can see how to do BOTH, but not on or the other.
