I regularly receive picture attachments that are sideways and scans or faxes that are upside down so I need to rotate them before I can view them correctly.

In Outlook, I’ve added an Exchange, POP3 and IMAP account and configured some rules to automatically sort my mail.

Is there a way to separate the management of these rules just as for the IMAP account?
