I need to make a rule to search for specific words in the email html source.
How do I do this?
Thanks,
Mike

You don't, I'm afraid. Rules do not handle HTML well at all.

Try adding this registry value (make a registry backup first):

Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options\Mail
Value Name: SaveAllMIMENotJustHeaders
Value Type: REG_SZ
Value: 0 to show only the headers (default); 1 to show the full message including all MIME message parts

If Outlook saves the entire message source (SaveAllMIMENotJustHeaders = 1), you should be able to create a rule that looks for the desired text in the message header.

Note that adding this registry value may have other performance and data storage implications.

Thanks Sue, I am on a MS exchange server and using Outlook 2003 will this
have any conflict with Exchange if I add this to the registry.
Thanks again.

I don't know of any conflict, but it's not a setting that's frequently used, so you might want to keep an eye on things.
