Outlook 2007 comes pre-set with a Rule to remove Categories from .

[Julie]

Outlook 2007 comes pre-set with a Rule to remove Categories from all
incoming emails. Why?

I find it cumbersome to have to assign Categories to new incoming emails.

Does the Catagory assignment show to the recipient on outgoing emails?

I have assigned Catagories in my contacts. When I receive an email from a
particular contact I would like it to reflect that on the incoming email.

Is there another way?

Thank you,
Julie

This is to prevent someone (me, a spammer, or a coworker) from sending you
mail with a category set, in an attempt to get your attention.

Contacts and Mail are not linked - you can't assign categories
automatically, based on the categories on the contact - you would need to
make a rule for each contact to set the category.
