Can you mark messages by assigning colors as in OE?

Can you mark messages by assigning colors as in OE? In OE I was able to mark
messages from certain people in certain colors. That was part of the
"rules". Is there any way to do that in Outlook? I have 2007, and I am a
very new user, as of yesterday.

You can use advanced formatting to mark mails with specific colors for senders. Use F1 and ask about color formatting.

Thank you for your reply. I did the F1 thing and there about five zillion
choices. Can you (or someone else) help me narrow it down to the one I want?
I'd sure appreciate it. Thanks.
