alert me with e-mail when I receive a specific e-mail

[John H]

I would like to be alerted with an email to my cell phone
when I receive a specific e-mail. I know I can foward it
but it is kind of large and my cell breaks it up in to 4
messages of gibberish. So does any one know how to make
outlook 2002 send me a short message when it receives the
specified one?

Thanks in advance
John

I have been using Outlook 2003 for some time, so not positive on Outlook
2002. But I think you could just create a rule that when it see's a certain
message come in, then it could send a pre-defined message (ie not the actual
email) so that at least you know you have some mail waiting for you. So it
would be set-up like you would set up one of the "I am out of the office"
and instead have it send you the message. Did you want to get part of the
message or subject line sent to you ? I have mine set up to if it see's a
..se ending, then it send me the text "Company Email Arrived" so at least I
can try to keep up with things.
