Q&A: does Outlook:Mac support server-side rules?

Steve asks:

Can Outlook 2011 manage server side rules on an Exchange server?

We didn’t get that into the initial release.  We’re well aware that it’s something our users would like, so hopefully I’ll be able to share more news about it in the future.

In the interim, Mac users who are in an Exchange 2010 environment are able to create and edit server-side rules via Outlook Web Access (OWA).  OWA 2010 has full support for Safari and Firefox.  This is how I manage my extensive set of server-side rules today.

One thought on “Q&A: does Outlook:Mac support server-side rules?”

  1. Being able to use a browser other than IE and get the full OWA experience is welcomed progress, but being able to manage this aspect of using Exchange through the application my users will use most is preferable. I’ll hold on to hope that a later update will bring this feature- please!
