APPLIES TO


 * Microsoft Office Outlook 2003

-



SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Office Outlook 2003, you create a rule that is based on the through the specified account option. If you have two e-mail accounts, the rule works for both e-mail accounts. This is true even though you specify that the rule is for only one e-mail account. The rule should work for only the e-mail account that you specify.



CAUSE
This issue occurs because the e-mail accounts are in the same domain.



WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, create a rule that is based on the sent to people or distribution list option instead of the through the specified account option.
