Greetings Support/Community,
I'm using MS Outlook 2016 64-bit (Version 1803) with Windows 10 Enterprise.
My job comes with the need to sort e-mails on a very specific basis and into 2-3 dozen folder's so I can track and task daily messages quickly and efficiently.
I have thus created 2-3 dozen rules. A large percentage are with specifics in the subject, as we use template style subjects with those specific portions for ease of use. Another large percentage is sorted by who they are from and also who the emails are send to.
Almost all of these are working flawlessly but a small percentage of e-mails that don't fit any of these specific rules are being funneled into random folders for seemingly no reason.
I've checked the rules regarding those folders and any general rules for clues but they don't correspond and any meaningful way. So I started by changing the Ordering of the rules and suddenly the folders these extra e-mails are getting lumped into is changing. Again I have checked the rules to see if it is catching something it should not but the case seems to simply be a matter of Ordering of rules and the e-mails defaulting to those folders for no logical reason.
Has anyone else experienced these issues? Is there a fix? Someone recommended on another thread, not specifically my issue, to rebuild rules but my rules don't seem to be the problem but instead there seems to be some Ordering glitch going on here.
Thanks for any help!
