New Mail & Folder Expansion

[Colin M. McGroarty]

I have several rules which send new mail messages to sub-folders that I've created in Outlook. Typically I keep many of these folder trees collapsed. I'm searching for an Outlook setting or registry edit that will automatically expand the folder tree to show any folders that receive a new message. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Kind Regards,

I have the same setup and it does this on mine. Are you using 2003?

Jack,

I'm kind of puzzled myself. I have multiple installations of Outlook 2003. Some of the installations exhibit this behavior and some don't. So far I haven't been able to identify the common denominator one way or the other.

Kind Regards,
