Ah, ok. I knew how to export the rules, but couldn't get to that point without responding to the Client or Server dialog
If I can cancel back out after that point without losing the rules, then that should be ok Thanks -----Original Message----- From: Andy David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 23 May 2002 12:51 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Rules on client and server do not match You can get this message also if you have two different versions of Outlook accessing the same mailbox. If you are worried about losing any rules, export them out before you decide whether to keep the server or client rules. You can always import then back in later if necessary. When you get that dialog box, choose either Server or Client, then click on the Options button to Export the rules. Click Cancel to back out completely from the dialog box! Open the Rules Wizard again, then make your choice whether server or client, then hit OK to save your choice. If you have lost some rules in the process, import them back in from the saved .rwz in the previous step. I would typically expect you would select "server" for consistency's sake. -----Original Message----- From: Niki Blowfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2002 7:28 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Rules on client and server do not match Sorry, yeah that's what we'd want ideally The real problem here, as I seem to have missed in my original question, is that we don't want to lose any of the many rules hes set up if possible -----Original Message----- From: Louis Joyce [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 23 May 2002 12:03 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Rules on client and server do not match Whoops. That meant to read 'even if my Outlook client is NOT running' Regards Mr Louis Joyce Data Support Specialist BT Ignite eSolutions -----Original Message----- From: Louis Joyce Sent: 23 May 2002 12:02 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Rules on client and server do not match I usually keep the rules on the server so that even if my Outlook client is running the rules are still being processed by the server that is up 24/7 (I would like to hope ;) ). Regards Mr Louis Joyce Data Support Specialist BT Ignite eSolutions -----Original Message----- From: Niki Blowfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 23 May 2002 11:25 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Rules on client and server do not match Dear All, I have a user who is presented with the above message when attempting to access the rules wizard in Outlook 2000, not sure if that's worded correctly, but he basically gets asked if he wants to keep the client rules or the server rules. He doesn't know what rules he has on the server or on the client, but basically he has some rules moving messages from people in his contacts, to various subfolders within outlook. There are no PST's involved, the info store is on the server. However, he is set up for offline working as it's a laptop. The offline store is up to date He doesn't want to lose any of the rules hes set up, but I'm unsure whether to keep the rules on the server. Its win2k pro, Outlook 2000 on Exchange 5.5 SP3 I've searched technet, but it only suggests solutions for multiple clients accessing a single info store. I've had a look with mdbvu32.exe from the support folder, but as far as I can see, you can only delete rules there Thanks for all advice Nik _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- The information contained in this email message is privileged and confidential information intended only for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
