Any way to setup an Outlook rule that differentiates a 7 character string
ending with specific alpha characters? Perhaps using wildcards?

Example: Subject line containing '#12345V' in subject line goes one place,
'#12345K' goes another, and '#12345678' (more than 7 characters) goes another.

Rule would try to do three things: 1) Does anything exist containing # sign?
2) If true, greater than or equal to 7 total characters? 3) If true, what is
the last character?

Advice on how to approach appreciated.

I don't believe Outlook's rules can to this.
