What would you like these rules to do? Most rules, when set up, are to move message items to a specified folder.

Supply a detailed depiction of what you want these rules to accomplish , we then can assist if Outlook will be able to do this.

Thx for the reply SpiderTech. I am, however, confused by your question. How does the "type" of rule relate to my question regarding the "limits" imposed on the size or number of rules allowed by Outlook?
