How do I get an Outlook rule to only activate at specific time/s

- I use Outlook 2003
- I have a number of rules which function well
- I would now like to modify existing rules and/or create new rules which do
not run continuously but only at a preset time or times
- The main purpose is to first move items using one rule to a specific
folder (this rule exists and operates well) and then to apply a second rule,
to said folder which rule now categorises the items automatically at a
predetermined time or set of times

Outlook doesn't support such a feature. You'll need to use a 3rd party tool,
such as Auto-mate.
