Outlook 2000- Max # Rules Allowed

[Scott]

Trying to figure out the maximum number of rules allowed
in Outlook 2000. When the max is reached is there a way
to modify Outlook to allow more? Thanks for the help!

there is a hard-coded limit of 32kb for the storage of rules...currently, no
way I know of to change that...

hmmm. i have exported my rules to a file on a floppy as a backup to
my backup. my rwz file is currently 59kb yet all of my rules seem to
work. is the file simply larger when exported?? using OL2000 on
WInXP Pro SP1.

The limit is set on the Exchange server, not client rules.
