Yes -- Outlook 2000.<br />
<br />
But I want to retain the notification message and sound for regular messages; I just want to turn them off for the receipts, etc. that the Rules move -- there doesn't seem to be an option in the Rules Wizard for that. &nbsp;I've done a workaround (adding a different sound for the moved receipts), but that gets to be a bit annoying.

Thanks; I was trying to avoid that, but I guess it will have to suffice. &nbsp;It will be tedious creating the new Rule(s), since I have many such Move rules.<br />
<br />
Ever hopeful, I'll leave this question open another week -- and if I don't get a better answer by then, I'll give you the points. &nbsp;Remind me with another Comment next Monday.

I have my Outlook Mail preferences set to display a message and produce a sound when new messages arrive. &nbsp;I also have Rules in place to move certain messages (like Receipts) to a different folder. &nbsp;I would like to turn off the Notification and Sound for those items. &nbsp;Any way to do that?
