Default Rules and Alerts

Outlook 2003 seems to be limited to 10 filtering Rules. Is there a way
to bypass this. Currently when I add the eleventh it just removes the
first.

Help!

Outlook 2003 is not limited to 10 filtering rules. It is limited to 32
kb for storing the rules. Maybe you could bypass this feature by using
VBA. But it is an annoying feature...

Default Rules and Alerts

Write shorter rules It's always been a limitation of Exchange server, but
is more pronounced since outlook 2003 uses Unicode to store the rules and
Unicode uses more of the 32 kb storage space, so you'll have fewer rules.
