1st I read mail from my Inbox, then I can jot a note & a rule file

[TerryC]

This is a suggestion, this feature may already exist in newer versions, I am
using Office 2003. I like creating rules for Outlook e-mail so they go into
folders but I tend not to read many of the ones for which I have created
rules, they just go into the folders and then get old before I get around to
reading them. What I'd like better is have all the emails initially come into
my Inbox, read them from there, and then I can be given an option for Outlook
to file the e-mail in an e-mail folder using a previously created or newly
created rule. It should also give me an option to jot a note about the e-mail
in a database of some sort before it files the email for me.

Use the unread search folder to read mail instead of the inbox.
