Default Rules with logical AND


Hi there,

I am using Outlook 2003 - without Exchange

I am trying to resend incomming messages differenciated by words in the
subject line.

Example:
message1 subject line: test
message2 subject line: test WARNING
message3 subject line: test ALARM

now I would like to resend the messages:
Subject "test" stays in inbox, no resend
Subject "test" and "WARNING" resend to
Subject "test" and "ALARM" resend also to


I can't figure out how to do that with the rule wizard.

Any hints from the experts?

regards from sunny Vienna

Julius

One rule will do that, given the conditions above. Resend all messages with
"test warning" OR "test alarm" to .

In this case I have different other signs between the word "test" and
the other two words I am looking for (alarm or warning).
A string would read like this:
test 11. Aug. 2006, 10:56 - Alarm
or
test 10:56, xxc - Warning

thats why I am looking for a logical "AND"

any more hints?

Then you should have said so. I can make suggestions based on what you
post, not what you keep hidden.

A string would read like this:
test 11. Aug. 2006, 10:56 - Alarm
or
test 10:56, xxc - Warning

Why not base them on "Alarm" and "Warning"? Why include "test" at all.
There is no way to do a logical AND.

Hi Brian,

Sorry for the missleading info at the beginning... :-(

The thing is that I get also other messages with the words "alarm" or
"warning" - but only when the word "test" is together with the other 2
words I would like to do a resend...

Maybe in future versions of outlook this will be possible, who knows.

Or do you know a 3rd party product that will do the job?

regards
Julius

Perhaps one of the tools listed here can do that:
