| | Rules from Outlook 2007 I have decided to use Windows mail instead of outlook 2007 because every few days I get the "restrictions prevent opening of the links etc". and have great difficulty in regaining function. I have successfully transferred my messages and my contacts. I have exported in the "rules" for mail to a thumb drive, but I cannot for the life of me import them into Windows mail. Is there perhaps the way of importing the message rules from Outlook 2007 to Windows mail? Assistance will be appreciated. |

| | Re: Rules from Outlook 2007 FWIW, that "restrictions" message usually comes from problems with your default browser settings: See if this page helps: http://www.slipstick.com/problems/link_restrict.htm "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer."
