Almost embarrassed to ask as I am sure it is very simple...
How do I make Outlook message rules be server based rather than client, so that they will work on web access, Smartphone etc...
Using SBS2003/Exchange 2003/Outlook 2003

By default Outlook/Exchange message rules are applied as server-side rules. They are evaluated even if Outlook is not running. But there are certain rules that are always client-only – those involving some element from Outlook that does not exist on the Exchange Server. There is a good article which explains Server-based vs. Client-based rules. | |||

Another gotcha is that Exchange will process rules server-side until the first client-side rule, so you can mix them, but be careful, some experimentation can often change client-side rules to server-side. My first rule is to permanently delete "very spammy" mail, but for some reason "permanently delete" is client side, but "move to deleted items" is not. | |||
