Viewing messages in categories

M

I must be missing something. I have Office 04, Entourage v11.1. I just
assigned categories to some of my address book entries. Then, for my
inbox messages, I selected view; arrange by, show in groups; by
category. I also went to Preferences and made sure I checked: auto.
match message categories to sender's categories. I thought the above
would let me view my inbox messages automatically sorted by category.
What am I misunderstanding?

The option you selected in Preferences will only take effect on future
messages received by Entourage. To correct this, select all messages in the
Inbox, and then go to Message > Apply Rule > All Rules. Now the category
groupings of the messages should reflect the category you've assigned the
sender.
