Setting Rules at Server Level

D

David Graham

When I was using Outlook on a PC, I was able to set rules and have them
applied at a server level. This way, if my PC ever wasn't on the rules
would still apply and incoming messages would be sorted accordingly. I
cannot seem to find the same functionality in Entourage. I have setup
rules, but they only seem to apply when Entourage is running. Is it
possible to set server level rules using Entourage 2004? Thanks for the
help.

Not in entourage (yet).

You can set up a server side Out of Office rule using Outlook Web Access
though.

You can send feedback to the developers on this issue. Use the last menu
item under the 'Help' menu - "Send Feedback on Entourage". This message will
go directly to the developers. The more people that request this feature the
more likely it is to be implemented.

Thank you Barry. I have submitted my request to Microsoft. I imagine that
development has been slowed while MS tries to get together a Universal code
version of Office for Mac. Maybe they'll blow our minds and include all our
requests in the next version. But, I'm not holding my breath. ;^)
