Howdy ~John, There is a rule called "Known" which can be used to sort incoming mail from *known* addresses into a specific folder. The definition of "known" addresses depends upon which of your configured address books and groups are selected. So, you could file all known users into a subfolder of the Inbox called "known". There is an option to continue with other rules, in case you want to perform other filtering actions on known users. If you leave that option unset, then the following rules will only be applied to unknown addresses. You can also setup an Outgoing Mail rule, which I call "Capture Recipient Addresses", which can add recipient addresses to your address book. Thus, people with whom you correspond automatically become "known". Hope this helps. -- Best regards, Alan K.
