Remarks

You can assign an array with one element to evaluate a single category or an array of multiple strings to evaluate multiple categories. Multiple category strings assigned in an array are evaluated using the logical OR operation.

This property uses the character specified in the value name, sList, under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International in the Windows registry, as the delimiter for multiple categories.

If a string specified by Categories matches a category of the message, the condition evaluates to True.

Outlook does not check to determine if the Categories property contains category names that are in the master category list.

Returns an error if Categories contains one or more empty strings.
