Outlook 2010: Color highlight email text with color in inbox for high priority email

Question

In Microsoft Outlook 2010, is it possible to highlight an email to a different color if it's more important? I notice that when email is flagged in the recipient inbox if the sender marks the email before they send. However, I just want to be able to set up rules to color highlight them. How do I do this?

Example:

• highlight email to orange if the domain on the FROM email address is from "@gmail.com"

EDIT:

This can be done via conditional formatting. To do this use the "View" tab and change the View Settings.

To make someones name appear in a certain color;

1. Click Add.
2. Enter a name for the rule.
3. Click Font.
4. Under Color, click the color you want.
5. Click OK.
6. Click Condition.
7. In the From box, type the person's name. Note: The name must exactly match the full name that appears on messages that you receive.
8. In the Filter, Conditional Formatting, and Advanced View Settings dialog boxes, click OK.
