email - Outlook rule for a specific period date


In my Outlook 2013, I am trying to manage my emails by creating sub-folders in my inbox.


What I want to do is to divide my emails in four sub folders named as follow :


(First Quarter, Second Quarter, Third Quarter, Fourth Quarter)


Currently, I want to apply this for the First and Second Quarter of the year.


Is it possible to do this by creating a specific rule?


I don't mind to create a rule for each quarter if needed.



Answer



You can do this, but you'd need to update the rule every quater


When you create a new rule, there is the option in Step 1


received in a specific date span

That will allow you to chose the date range you want to work with. In step 2 you can then choose


move to the specified folder

As per your comments, I'd probably create the sub folder now, similar to

And then (using the example above) create the rules required! This way you won't have to think about it until 2020!!
