If your inbox is a mess, there are many ways you can manage it through Outlook. While we've already discussed how you can use folders, filters, and categories, these are all after the fact changes, once your email gets to you. If you really want a clean inbox, you can set up Rules in the Outlook app in Windows 10 to automatically move, flag, and respond to email messages.
One of the easiest ways to create a rule in Outlook is through one of your messages. You can get started by right-clicking the message, choosing Rules, and then choosing to Create Rule. There will be some conditions that you can choose from, but you also can find additional ones by clicking Advanced Options. As an example and default scenario, you can configure Outlook to move messages of that title or sender to a folder, just choose the checkbox for Subject contains, and then the checkbox for Move the item to a folder.
There are many rules which we're about to explain in the next section. But, once you're satisfied, you can choose one. Then, click OK. After that, you can choose to use the rule right away. Just choose Run this new rule now on messages already in the current folder checkbox, and then select OK. You should see that the message will now move to the folder you selected.
