Default Move and Delete Mail Without Attachments

Hello,



I'm looking to have several other mailboxes point to mine and all I want are the emails with attachments, I want the rest to be deleted.

So if you send an email to joe@blahblahblah.com it will go to me rex@blahblahblah.com and be moved to a folder in my inbox.

If the email has an attachment it stays in that folder but if it doesn't have an attachment it gets deleted.

Any way to setup a rule/rules to do this?

You can create a rule that will move messages with an attachment to a sub folder. You can then manually empty the inbox.

You could create a macro to move messages with an attachment, or delete messages without, but a problem arises with respect to what Outlook considers an attachment. For example images in an html message are treated as attachments. So you need to be very specific about what you want to keep. The rule approach is safest.
