 +====Manage emails automatically with rules====
  
 +To let Outlook handle emails automatically, rules are used. In a rule you define the conditions that an email must meet to be handled by the rule and a set of actions that should be applied to the email.\\
 +In order to define the automatic filters for the e-mail as precisely as possible, the Rule Wizard is used. The predefined conditions and actions can be easily selected in it. To call the Rule Wizard select from the Start ribbon (menu) at the category **Move**, option **Rule**-> **Create rule...**.

 +
 +The following describes **automatic moving**. However, you can also **delete**, **forward** or **categorize** emails automatically in a similar way. 
 +
 +===Define conditions for the e-mail rule===
 +In the following the process is described using Outlook 2013, but the rule wizards in other Outlook versions are designed the same way and therefore the description is transferable to other Outlook versions. \\
 +In the first window, common conditions are suggested to filter incoming emails for the following situations:\
 +
 +<WRAP center 80%>
 +- Emails that are **sent to me** \.
 +- Emails **from** specific person \\
 +- Emails with a specific **subject** \.
 +</WRAP>
 +{{ :de:services:email_collaboration:email_service:1windows:outlook_config:outlook_2013_regel-erstellen.png |}}
 +
 +With a click on **Advanced Options...** you reach the rule wizard.  This consists of two windows, where you select the conditions in step one. In step two the settings for the condition are made.

 +You can disable rules by removing the check mark. 
 +By double-clicking on the rule you can customize it by defining/selecting additional conditions, actions or exceptions above the rule wizard. During the editing process, the selected conditions will be displayed at the top of the list.
