Forwards items to one or more users when the rule conditions are met. For
example, if you are on a core team, you can have a rule forward meeting minutes to
extended team members.
Delegates an appointment, reminder note, or task to another user when the rule
conditions are met. For example, if someone is covering for you while you're away
from the office, your rule can delegate appointments, tasks, or reminder notes to
that person.
Sends a prepared reply to the sender when the rule conditions are met. For
example, if you need to be out of the office for several days, your rule could send a
reply to incoming items indicating when you'll be back.
You can also use Define Conditions to prevent replies going to mail list servers and
other large groups.
Accepts an appointment, reminder note, or task when the rule conditions are met.
For example, your rule could accept all appointments from a specific individual.
Assigns a category to any item meeting the specified conditions. Categories include
Low Priority, Urgent, Follow-up, Personal, and any other user-defined category.
Deletes or declines any item when the rule conditions are met. For example, your
rule could decline any appointment scheduled for a certain day of the week if you
are always unavailable for meetings on that day.
Deletes items from the Trash when the rule conditions are met. For example, your
rule could empty items received from a company that routinely sends you junk mail.
Moves items to a folder when the rule conditions are met. For example, you might
want all items with certain words in the Subject box moved to a common folder.
Links items to one or more folders when the rule conditions are met. Linking an item
to a folder lets you view the item from more than one folder. For example, if you
have an item that relates to Marketing and Personnel, you can place it in the
Marketing folder, then link it to the Personnel folder. You can then open the item
from either folder.
Marks all items matching the rule conditions as Private. When an item is marked
Private, you can restrict your proxies from accessing the item. For example, your
rule could mark all items from your family members to be Private.
Marks all items matching the rule conditions as if they have been read. For
example, if you are skimming a reply thread in a shared folder and don't want to
follow the thread anymore, your rule could mark all the items in the thread as if they
had been read so they wouldn't sort at the top of the Item List.
Marks all items matching the rule conditions as if they have not been read. For
example, you could create a user-activated rule to mark as unread all items you
have opened from your manager to remind yourself to re-read or act on them.
Stops other rules from acting on items that meet the rule conditions. Rules are
executed in the order they are listed in the Rules dialog box. If there are other rules
that would normally affect these items, this rule action prevents the other rules from
executing.
