Outlook 2013 Automatically Moving Conversation From Folder To Inbox

1

I get over 100 emails a day with different requests and I am trying to keep organized with inbox 0. I have a few folders like "Needs Attention", "Waiting", "Archived". I also changed my "View" setting to "Show as Conversation".

What I am trying to do is when an email comes in and I cannot get to it right that second I put it in "Needs Attention". Or, If I have sent out something and I am waiting for a response I put it in "Waiting".

However, when someone responds it seems to start a new conversation in my Inbox and I need to go through my 2 filter folders and move everything to Archived once completed.

Any way to have the whole conversation move back to my Inbox for review?

I would even be OK if the conversation continued in the folder I put it in. Maybe a different suggestion?

I am sorry, I totally missed this. I tried it out but I think I already did this one by one a different way. I will report back later if anything changed. – Trigs – 2019-08-01T19:27:19.430

So I Just got an email that I had moved to my Archived folder. The original email Conversation is in Archived with the last email being from 11:46 while my inbox does not not show in Conversation View and newest email is from 12:32.

I Either want the whole conversation to move back to the Inbox (No longer in my Sub Folder) or the Email Conversation (Chain) to be continued in the sub folder. – Trigs – 2019-08-01T19:41:19.280

Conversation view is a view setting which only be applied to emails in one folder. It won’t move subsequent emails to one conversation together.

Considering your situation, you can create a rule to move specific emails to specific sub-folder. Or, move the whole conversation when all the responses have been received.
