Mailfilter on contacts

[Pirke]

Hi all,

maybe a question already asked, but couldn't find it in the archive.

Is it possible to create a mail filtering rule that involves all
mailaddresses in the contacts folder?

I want a rule like

"if it's from a person thats in 'contact' (or personal Addressbook),
then it has to be moved to a special folder"

I know I can make a rule with specific addresses (and can use all
addresses in my contact) but then if I add a contact or change
someones address, I have to change the rule also.

maybe somone has an idea?

thanks, Peter

Yes, in Outlook 2002 and 2003. No, in earlier versions.

Use the condition "sender is in a specified address book" condition. See
