Easier ways to search and organize rules

[Searching and Organizing Office Rules]

Is there an easier way to search and organize mail rules. I am not talking
about making rules - only organizing them. The current view and window is
difficult at best, to find a rule you must scroll through everyone. It would
be great if they could be listed alpha or exported to a spreadsheet for
organizing.

Thanks

It would be great if they could be listed alpha

Rules are listed in the order in which they should be run. Sometimes
changing the order will have side effects that would change the behavior of
the rule collection.

If you want them listed in alphabetical order, rename them to give them
alhphabetically sorted names, but don't their operational order unless you
think hard about whether they'll still operate properly. If, for example,
they all have the "stop processing more rules" action, it won't matter what
order they're in. Otherwise, it may.
