how to set email rules in new version of Microsoft Outlook Version 1.2023.516.100 (Production)

Do you have Microsoft NEW outlook on your laptop? Right click on messages should bring up a list of options and rules is one of them.

The issue is that rules NO LONGER RUN AUTOMATICALLY!

Which means that EACH time you open outlook you'd have to open an run each rule manually.

Folks, you CAN set rules with the New Outlook!

Rules allow you to move, flag, and respond to email messages automatically.

Create a rule on a message

1. Right-click an existing message and select Rules > Create Rule.
2. Select a condition, and what to do with the message based on the condition. For example, to move messages with a certain title to a specific folder, select the Subject contains condition, select Move the item to folder, select or create a New folder, and then select OK.
3. When you're done creating the rule, select OK.
4. To use the rule right away, select the Run this new rule now on messages already in the current folder checkbox, and then select OK. The message now appears in that folder.
