Are flagged messages in Outlook like the "red envelope" messages in GroupWise?

in

The "red envelope" in GroupWise had no real function other than to give visual feedback that the item was of High Priority. You may change the message options to send it as a High Priority message which will display the "red envelope" style of vidual feedback.

Flagged items may be interpreted by the reciever similarly, though a flagged item also contains a follow up (task reminder if you will) feature along with an alarm. In this sence, it's a little more than the "red envelope" than we have had in GroupWise.

Will we still be able to write rules?

in

Yes. Any rules that you have in GroupWise will need to be recreated as necessary in Outlook. Unfortunatly, rules do not migrate from GroupWise to Outlook.
