How can I organize messages without rules?

I have hundreds of contacts (Clients), in my address book. I currently move
messages from the “Inbox†and “Sent Items†to a unique folder for each
client. Writing a rule would mean creating three rules for each client.


Thank You,

You are already using the only way to organize in folders without rules:
manually.
 
A tad bit of history on this. I am moving up from Outlook Express to Outlook.
In Outlook Express, the rules allow for the operator of “OR†(It defaulted to
the operator of “AND†if you clicked on the “AND†you could change it to the
“ORâ€). By the use of “OR†in a rule you can work wonders. My example is this,
a rule would read,

Apply this rule after the message arrives
Where the From line contains people
or Where the message body contains specific words
or Where the To line contains people
Move it to the specified folder

In Outlook I would need to write a rule each of the “FROMâ€, “BODYâ€, and “TOâ€
triggers.

I thought that Outlook had a work around that was something like a switch
you could turn on that would automatically move all message sent to or
received from an address to a unique folder.

Not that I'm aware.
