QUESTION POSED ON: 06 October 2004
Since upgrading to Outlook 2003, I can no longer keep all the rules I used to have with Exchange. It's limited to about 30 rules and won't let me add any more. Under Outlook 2000, I had more than 100 rules placing specific e-mails from specific users into specific folders. What changed in the client? And can it be fixed?

EXPERT RESPONSE
There is no limit on the number of rules, but there is a limit of 32KB on the size of rules per folder. The maximum number of rules is defined by the data that is required for a rule. There is typically a limit of 40 to 50 rules per folder. Try reorganizing your rules and creating smaller rules.
