time management on the rule would be a great feature.

I get emails from certain people and if i create a rule to go to a folder I
can see they can easily be missed. But if they went to the inbox for 48hrs
then to the specified folder it would be perfect.

i found out how to do this job, but is there a way to create a rule to
send
an email to a folder after it has been in the ibox a specified time, such
as
48 hours?

I searched in Outlook help context and using Google but cannot find
clear
instructions to send an email when it is received from a specific email
address to a folder.

such as all email from xyz.com to this folder.

But when I go to create a rule i have to click on "people or
distribution
list" and I can only choose from existing names, contacts etc.

How do I create this rule??
