You can filter email as it comes in according to your preferences using Rules. In Outlook, under Mail, click on the Rules button and then Create Rule. go to Advanced Options to walk through the wizard.
Step 1: Select Condition(s)
Select the cues to trigger the rule. Common conditions may be either to check for a To: address (e.g. Executive-News-Watch), a From: address (e.g. FBNews@fb.org), or a subject (e.g. DC Office Daily Meeting Schedule).
Step 2: Select Action(s)
Tell the system what to do with the message, e.g., move it to a specified folder.
Step 3: Select Exception(s)
Exceptions are optional, but there may be certain circumstances where you don't want the rule to apply. For example, if you move all messages with a subject containing "DC Office Daily Meeting Schedule" to a folder to read later, you may want to set an exception for [except if only sent to me] to make sure you don't lose track of something if someone is asking you a specific question about the schedule.
