How can I change color of all outgoing email?

Our IT guy has told us we have to limit each project to one folder in our
outlook .pst file. So for project XXX I have to put all incoming and
outgoing email in the same folder w/out subdividing folders below. I'd like
to be able to visually separate incoming from outgoing and I thought one
easy way would be to change the color of any email that went through the
Sent Items folder. Once email was in the Sent Items folder it would change
colors so that when I put them with the other incoming emails in the project
folder the black emails would be incoming and the colored would be outgoing.
I'm just talking aboug changing the name/subject/date/etc line of the email
that you see in your email list...not the body of the text.

For some reason I thought you could do this with a rule...but apparently
not. Any ideas?

Check out Tools menu, Organize. I'm not sure if it will do what you want but
it may be simpler than trying to figure out a rule to do it.
