I’m pretty new to using Outlook for business after working on G-Suite for the last decade.

Thought it would be helpful to start a thread on sharing your favourite outlook rule / productivity hack?

(Sorry if this already exists, I couldn’t find anything via search)

I’ll go first …

Filtering “Accepted”, 

RuleWhy I love itHow I built itTested?RSVP responses skipping my inbox

As a cross-functional senior leader, I run a lot of meetings. RSVP responses were spamming my inbox and making me miss REAL emails!

Love tacking back control of my inbox.

Condition:

Subject or Body Includes “Accepted”, “Tentative”

Action:

Move to “Calendar Responses” and Mark as Read.

* Note, I chose to keep declined RSVPs as that may trigger action on my part.

Yes! No problems so far.

However, if people that accept or hit maybe send a message along with the RSVP, there is no way to filter for that. So still worth checking every now and then
