create a rule to move new emails to different local folders based on different criteria

well, the question seems to be something very basic and one should be able to figure out a way to achieve it by doing some click here n there. Not so. I've been fiddling with the rules and it's frustrating. I'm moving from Mail.app to Outlook 2011 (14.2.1). Here is what I'm trying to do.

- I have created a few local folders "ON MY COMPUTER" for e.g. ON MY COMPUTER -> Inbox -> test folder
- I want new emails from sender xyz to come to this "test folder"
- when I try to create a rule and chose "move to folder" and try to choose a folder, it only lists my exchange server folders and not my local folder under "ON MY COMPUTER"

I'm done googling and searching all over the place and I did not find a single person asking this, so I'm sure it must either be me or my mac or my outlook. 

Any help will be highly appreciated!

Thanks,
