To set up automatic cleanup for a particular sender’s mail or an entire category in Outlook.com or Windows Live Hotmail (and have the cleaning rule applied to existing emails immediately):
•Open a message from the sender or newsletter you’d like cleaned up automatically.
•Click Sweep in the Outlook.com toolbar.
•Select Schedule cleanup from the menu that comes up.
•Now select: •Only keep the latest message from this sender to have Windows Live Hotmail automatically delete all old emails when the latest issue arrives.
•Delete all messages older than __ days to have all emails from the sender kept for up to 60 days.
•Move all messages older than __ days to <select> and pick a folder for filing under <select> to make Windows Live Hotmail archive old issues automatically.
•Optionally, check Do this for everything in the ___ category to apply your rule to all emails classified as Newsletters, for example, by Windows Live Hotmail.
•Click OK.
To change a cleanup filter, follow the steps again.
