> 2. In CONDITIONS - Select "When the Subject line contains specific words"
> 3. In ACTIONS - Select "DELETE IT" or "MOVE TO SPECIFIED FOLDER"
> 4. In the RULE DESCRIPTION - click on the underlined blue words "Contains
> Specific Words".
> 5. In the dialog box that opens, enter the words "Out of Office". Click
> OK.
> 6. If you've selected "MOVE TO SPECIFIED FOLDER" instead of Delete, click
> on
> the underlined words "Move to a Specifed Folder". Enter the name of the

> 7. Give the Rule a name, save it and you're done!!
