Rules question

[GMLutz]

I am a novice at Outlook, so I hope you can help me. I have a rule
that diverts all email from a court I practice before into a folder. I
have another rule that diverts any email from the court with certain
words in the heading to a subfolder. However, it doesn't take the
email out of the first folder, i.e., I have to look at the email twice
-- once in the court's general folder, and once in the subfolder.

I need a rule that will dump everything into the general court folder,
unless it has the word "Motion" in the header. In that case, I want it
to go to the "Motions" subfolder, and not the general court folder. If
it has the word "Order" in the header, I want it to go into the
"Orders" subfolder, and not the general court folder. If it doesn't
have any of those words, I want it to just stay in the general court
folder.

Get it? Thanks for the help!

Order your rules so that the more specific one fires first and make sure
each of your rules end in a Stop Processing action so the message won't end
up in multiple folders

have you got the rule set to copy the email into the second folder rather
than moving it ??
