You can use inbox rules to automatically perform specific actions on email that arrives in your inbox, like deleting an email from a certain sender, moving emails with a certain subject to a different folder, or more. We recommend managing your inbox rules on the "web version" of Outlook, which is available on the home page of the MySAU portal. These changes will apply anywhere you check your email. You can access these rules by opening the web version of Outlook, clicking the settings cog in the upper right hand corner, and then searching for "inbox rules." If you make a mistake or aren't sure a rule is working correctly, you can delete the rule and try again.
