Is there a way to create a Rule to automatically move all
messages from a certain domain to a folder for mailbox
maintenance purposes?

The only thing I can seem to do with domains is block them
completely or let them pass through to the Inbox.

I tried using a wildcard as a Sent From (ie. *@domain.com)
which did not kick out any errors, but when I run the rule
none of the emails from the specified domain were sent to
the folder specified in the rule.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Create a rule with "specific words in the sender's address" and make those
specific words "domain.com". This is possible in OL 2003. I don't knwo if
it's in earlier versions, and you failed to state what version you're using.

Rules don't treat asterisks as wildcards.
