Sue,

Do you know of any samples that will look at email as it comes in, and then
match it to a list of given addresses, and then move it to a folder?

Is there a way to look at the code for any of the rules that I have created?
I am used to being able to "record" a macro and then modify it in Excel, and
I am just looking for the basic info I need.

Thanks
Bruce

You can't record a macro in Outlook, but you can write them. While it is
possible (not at all easy) to make some modifications of very simple rules,
my guess is that your project (as yet undescribed) will need more than just
simple rules. See http://www.slipstick.com/dev/vb.htm for VB+Outlook
resources, including samples.
