Outlook 2010 - Organizing Rules and Alerts - There has to be an easier way.
I use Outlook rules a lot. Despite their usefulness, the Manage Rules and Alerts dialog form is pretty clunky. For example, I just created a rule for a new client, and, unfortunately, all my client rules are at grouped at the bottom of my Rules list. Subsequently, I have to select the new rule and hit the down arrow (image 2) about 60 times.
Here's my question: Is the data stored in an XML file? Can I cheat by exiting out of Outlook, modifying the rules directly in the XML file, and restarting Outlook?

Thanks for the feedback guys. Sorry, e_aravind, didn't understand your response.
>> modifying these options should end-up in modifying the store level data.
We shouldn't be having an XML file which is a copy\shadow-copy of the store content.
