Then, I have a regular rule that says, in essence, if "From" > contains "Diane Ross" then file the message in the folder "Diane". If you have several contacts you want moved to a personal folder... Assign a category to your contacts. Next create a rule: Is not from a mailing list >From is in Category xxx Move to folder xxx This is much easier than creating a Rule that lists each individual contact or having to create a Group. Categories are one of the features that I am just getting to appreciate as a great tool.
