I am trying to make a custom rule when a certain set of emails come in,
they go to a certain folder and the attachments(which are small mp3s) will
automatically open when I open the folder that is holding these emails.
I went into the rules and assigned the emails to go into the folder and
it works fine but I need the attachments of all the emails(which are mp3s) to
open at the same time in MusicMatch Jukebox.
When I click on custom rule, there is a box that I think is supposed to
have some choices in it but it is blank. The note in the help filestated
that If the add-in does not appear, the add-in is not properly installed for
use by Outlook. You must contact the add-in developer for assistance.
Below is the help file I looked at:

the folder.), click Mail.
