outlook and coloring the emails

Post by BittenApple »

Hello all,
I want to color some of the emails in my inbox. I apply conditional formatting, but as soon as the email is read, the color changes to black and looses its color. How should I go around this?
Thanks,
Bita

I see the same. Looks like a bug in Outlook to me...
Best wishes,
Hans

I've not checked, but maybe one needs to set up two rules, one for unread and one with similar colour for read mails?
Alternatively there could be a condition that ignores the mail read status that can be added to the rule?

Just theory. I cannot verify at this time.

If your absence does not affect them, your presence didn't matter.
