I've given this some thought and here's the deal as I see it at least. This will work only if outlook has an option that you can add to your existing rules that instructs outlook to stop processing more rules like outlook express. If it does and I believe it should do the following. Modify all of your existing rules adding the command telling each of them to stop processing more rules. Next add a sixth rule since you already have five directing outlook to play a sound for all messages. In other words this will in effect tell outlook to play a sound for all messages that fail the previous five steps. I couldn't write this earlier because I was going out when I first got your post this morning. Let me know if this works, and like I said I've done such things with outlook express before so it should work for you as well.

I have 5 folders in Outlook 2000 that I have created a sound for, when an email arrives in that folder. These folders receive emails from various groups that I am a member of. Before the individual folder sounds would work, I had to go into my control panel and turn off the sound for my inbox. I still have a variety of odd and end emails come into my inbox. The various emails that continue to come into my inbox does not have a sound to be played when they arrive. What I am wanting to know is, is there a way that I can go ahead and create a sound for the assorted emails that come into my inbox, without causing interference with the sounds of the other folders. If so, please give me instructions on how to do this. I have tried following the same steps that I used for creating sounds for the other folders, but for some reason I can't create a sound for my inbox in the same way. Thanks for any help that I can get on this subject.
