I would take another look at using a rule for this - I'm doing what you
describe successfully on my home PC with Outlook 2007, where I have messages
to one particular address go into a subfolder of my main Inbox.

Failing that, you can just have Jerry create a view that shows the To field.
You can then use the "show in groups" feature to group messages in the Inbox
by "To." All the necessary settings are on the View menu in Outlook. As a
start, if he has a grey bar at the top of his current view saying "Arrange
By: Date," just right-click and change that to say "Arrange By: To."

You should be able to create a CSR using "specific words in the recepients
address" (Jerry) and then the actions you want after.

Really! I have at least two rules keying off the contains in the recepient
address. Can you copy and past the contents of the 'rule description' so we
can have a better look at it please?

Also, is outlook configured with more than one account or just the one
exchange mapi one?

Newsgroup ettiqute says you should create a new entry for a new question
which you should consider doing and perhaps cross posting with an Exchange
2003 newsgroup.

With Outlook you can flag such messages, change importance, forward, move to
a folder or many other actions, I don't believe you are provided with the
out-of-the-box ability to modify the subject line.

I'd be inclined just to move them to the Junk folder where the IMF is likely
putting ones also.

....besides, if all mail sent to that address is epected to be spam, why not
just dump it to start with?

That would indicate your conditional is operating on the "sent to" not
"words in the recepient address". The two are different and you may need to
look closer to find the one being suggested.

Agreed - I have more than one address associated with my Exchange mailbox,
and I've successfully tested this by creating rules to move messages as KJ
describes.

Apply this rule after the message arrives with in the
recipient's address move it to the Test folder and stop processing more
rules.

Are other rules working in this user's mail profile? What happens if you
move the rule in that image to the top of the list, so it processes first?
Have you tried it in a different mail profile on a different PC? There's no
POP connector involved in this, right?

One thing I noticed that was a little odd - I have a lot of rules that move
messages based on sender, and those rules process transparently to me. In
other words, the messages just appear in the folder they're directed to.
With the rule based on recipient, I can see the message hit my Inbox for a
few seconds before it moves to the other folder. I'm not sure why this
happens, or why it's even relevant. What happens if you go to Rules and
click the Run Rules Now button to run the rule for messages already in the
Inbox?

Just a wild shot in the dark, especially if it's Outlook 2003. What happens
if you take Outlook out of cached Exchange mode? Does the rule work then?
I've had enough problems with cached mode that whenever a user complains of
weirdness in Outlook, I delete their OST and let Outlook create a new one.
Most times, that solves it, but I've never had it come up with regard to
rules.

No, mine are the same before the @ and different after. I would definitely
try creating a profile for that user on a different machine. If you don't
want to do that, you could at least rename his existing profile and create a
new one for him on that PC. But I'd get rid of the OST after renaming the
first profile and before creating the second - I don't know why this would
be OST-related, but just in case, you don't want the new profile to use the
old OST.

I can't think of anything that would cause this. I would try posting to
microsoft.public.outlook.general - you should find people there who know
much more about Outlook.

I think i know why your rules might be working.

Are these other addresses that you have different in the username
part ? Do you have and and
?

What i mean is, in my case, it's all ,
, .

As i said, the "system" takes out the domain part, effectively leaving
the Jerry part alone.

Maybe thats the reason the rule doesnt work?
I know this doesnt make too much sense, but who knows?
