In Entourage, I can make unread messages show up red in Prefs>View. I can't find how to do this in Outlook. Maybe to much exposure to MS is making me stupid, I sure hope that this is still possible.

Won't be red but they'll be filtered out.

I don't see this either. But you could build a rule to set the category based off of message status > unread.

cgc, when I do that my inbox is empty. what I want is to see at a glance what is unread. CW, how do I set that rule? Thank you both.

What cgc probably meant is that the unread filter hides read messages to show only unread messages.

Yup...not sure if you can color new messages red, didn't see anything in the Rules options.
