want to filter out emails, with subjest line starting with a specficsring

[Anand V]

Hi All,
I am using MS outlook 2003, I am trying to find out how can i create a
rule to filter out emails with subject line starting with a specific
string, but not to filter if that string is in the middle of subject
line.

i.e. lets take the sting as Foo
Filer if
Foo is in the starting
don't filter if
if the Foo is not in the starting.

if any of you aware of the trick to make this happen please let me
know, i tried to google it, but couldn't find anything related to it.

Thanks
Anand

outlook doesn't offer anyway to build that sort of rule. If you can count on
always having the same leading letter - ie, "a foo" - you can create an
exception in the rule.
