Running Rules on messages after you read them

google ad 120x240 white banner - Outlook pages

We frequently get questions from users who want to run their rules automatically after reading the messages. Outlook does not support this - Rules Wizard processes the messages as they are downloaded into Outlook or when you press the Run Rules Now button in Rules Wizard.

The tools on this page will either run rules after some time has passed or provide easier methods to file messages.

Auto-Mate   An add-in for Outlook that allows you use define rules to move mail from your Inbox (or other folders) based on several criteria, including the age of the message. Auto-Mate fills this gap an enables you to apply rules to messages that have been in your Inbox for a given number of hours, days or weeks. Available in Standard or Pro Version 5.0.
QuickFile 4Outlook   File 90% of your emails at the click of a button. Manage your Inbox and Sent Items folders. Move emails out of the Inbox to the correct folder at the click of a button. QuickFile remembers the folders used for each person and presents a short customized list each time. Use the same list to Send&File in one step instead of having to go back to your Sent Items folder.
