LawToolBox for Microsoft Outlook & Teams

 

Rule No. 1: Outlook Inbox Rule (repeat for all users)

 

Outlook Inbox Rule (repeat for all users) LawToolBox Rules The rule automatically moves deadlines (e.g.: all day events) out of the Outlook inbox. 95% of items LawToolBox generates are deadlines. However, If an attorney also wants to automatically move calendar invites scheduled for a specific time of day (e.g., from 9am-12pm) to same folder replace LTB-allday with LTBUID for Rule#1. Most attorneys prefer our default settings and prefer to click “I Accept” to events scheduled at a specific time of day so that the deadlines appear as bold on the calendar and the attorney shows as busy (instead of tentative and grayed out) during that time.
