Possibility to run Outlook.com rules for mails having a specific age or staying for specific duration in Inbox

[Tobias_S]

Hello Power Automate Experts,

is there any possibility to run mail rules in Outlook.com for mails only having reached a specific age / specific duration in the Inbox?

e.g. Mails from communities shall rely for 2 weeks in the Inbox and should be moved then in folder "Communities".

Your help would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @Tobias_S 

Do you run Flow once a day, then get emails that were received 14 days ago, and move them to a specific folder?

You can use the following formula in Search Query in Get emails to get emails that were received 14 days ago.

received:@{formatDateTime(addDays(utcNow(),-14),'yyyy-MM-dd')}

Then add Move email action to move email.

Hope the content above may help you.

Best Regards

Hello @v-LilyW-msft,

thank you for your support. This is exactly what I was looking for.

Is there also the possibility to e.g. separate the for-each by sender/mail title?

E.g. For each mail from Microsoft, move it to folder: Microsoft, for each mail from Vodafone, move it to folder: Vodafone?

Hi @Tobias_S 

When you have multiple possible values, and want to have different workflows for each. You can use Switch Action.
