Probably not. The Windows Mail interface, as I understand it, is not
the
same as that for Outlook Express.

Hi Gary,
I have never used Windows Mail and so I couldn't say one way or the
other
if
the OE message rules would work in Windows Mail or not. Sorry. Take
care.
Mike

Do these steps work pretty much the same way in Windows Mail?
I use Outlook, but I know someone who is having a hard time setting up
folder rules in Windows Mail.
Thanks for the tips, Mike.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] One more step-OE rules-Re: Making a JAWS floder?
I have one additional step to add to the steps for adding a new mail
rule
that I found very helpful. I found it on an OE advice website.
I was having a lot of trouble since I have quite a few rules set up and
things were ending up in weird folders.
This really helped.
After the following step in the list below
7. Now tab once to Actions list. You will see or hear"Move it to the
specified folder." Again, press the space bar one time.
Addition to this step:
Use the arrow key to move down the list and also press space bar on
"Stop
processing rules".
This causes Oe to put the particular email immediately into the named
folder
and not to continue down the list of rules looking for others that
might
apply.
Then go and follow the steps that were given before.
I also make sure these are near the top of the list so that they will
be
processed first.
If you only have one or two rules this might not be necessary but I
have
15
rules so far so it really helps.

Hi Rich,
First open each of your Jaws folders and move the messages into your In
Box.
After all of your messages are in your In Box highlight each folder and
delete it except for one. This is the folder you are going
to import your messages into. I have tweaked Making Message Rules a
little
bit so try following the steps the way they are below. If you still
can't
get it done and you are in the U.S. or Canada I may be able to help you
over
the phone. I hope these steps will get you over the hump though. Take
care.
