6 The server can apply rules to messages even if Outlook is not running. These are called server-based rules. The rules must be set to be applied to messages when receiving them in the Inbox on the server, and the rules must be able to run to completion on the server. For example, a rule can't be applied on the server if the action specifies that a message be printed. If a rule can't be applied on the server, it is applied when starting Outlook. A rule that can't be applied on the server has the words "client-only" added to the end of the rule's name. Client-only rules are applied after all other rules. If the list of rules contains rules that can be run on the server as well as those that can't, the server-based rules are applied first, followed by the client-only rules. 5.
