In my organization I'm a member of many distribution lists, I have a rule for each DL/ML such that each message is delivered to a subfolder for that DL, however it's important that any messages sent to a distribution list, but containing my name in the To:
, Cc:
, or in the message body are delivered to my Inbox and not my distribution list subfolders.
I have a rule set up in my Exchange (Office 365) account that looks like this:
- Apply this rule after the message arrives
- Where my name is in the To box
- and where my name is in the Cc box
- and where my name is in the To or Cc box
- and with "Dai" in the body
- move it to the
Inbox
folder- and stop processing more rules
At first-glance, this rule seems fine - except that it applies the AND
operator, so logically only messages with my name simultaneously in To
, Cc
, and the body will be moved to my inbox. Surprisingly this does happen - but it means that a lot of messages fall through the cracks.
Rather than creating one rule for each, is there a way to change it so these predicates are applied with the OR
operator instead of AND
?
I'm using Office 365 Exchange so I can't use VBA rules (which, in my understanding, run on the client).
