I have been using Outlook as my email client for many many moons now.
it’s possible for you to get there by hittingTools - Rules and Alerts.
If you already have any rules created they will be here.
People use these to setup auto-forwards or automated responses.
I use these to take actions on my computer.
My first rule shuts down my system and the second one restarts the system.
After you start creating the rule hit the Start from a blank rule radio box.
This gives us the most flexibility.
Next selectCheck messages when they arrive.
This will scan only incoming messages for your rules.
you’ve got the option to really achieve automation with these rules!
Next up I hit thespecific keywordslink and I specify my keyword(s).
In this case I used the key word -SecretKeyWord.
This is case sensitive and the email’s subject would have to haveSecretKeyWordin the subject just like that.
Then that will trigger our Action which you will see shortly.
Our action is going to run a batch file so we choosestart an app.
You will need to create a batch file for each action.
