Depending on the number of entries in that address book, this condition might skip some messages if you receive a lot of mail.
When you use the " sender is in address book" condition, Outlook will look up the address in the address book you specify. Can use people or distribution list condition or use the in address book condition to apply to all addresses in a contacts folder. Items sent to or from other lists are caught by these two rules and retained in the Inbox: I have some separate rules to move messages from a few specific distribution lists into their own folders. (You could also add to the Personal Address Book if you have it in your profile.) This step is crucial to gathering all the addresses for distribution lists into my first two anti-junkmail rules. Then, I right-click and choose Add to Contacts to add the address to my Contacts folder. When I receive the first message from any new mailing list that I've subscribed to, I examine the header to figure out whether the From or To address is the one that distinguishes the distribution list it's usually easy to tell. Some lists work better with a "from people or distribution list" rule, while others are best handled with a "sent to people or distribution list" rule.
These rules are mostly designed to handle mailing lists that I've subscribed to. The last four rules in my Rules Wizard list work together to make sure that undesired messages not sent directly to me are diverted to a Junkmail folder.
