Outlook rules not running...
I don't know why! Sometimes (no pattern that I can see) my Outlook rules don't run and everything just goes right into my inbox (I have several listserv boxes, spam, and some others). So I have to manually run them to get them to work. <p><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-size:large;">C</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:orange;font-size:large;">O</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:green;font-size:large;">L</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-size:large;">O</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:indigo;font-size:large;">R</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:violet;font-size:large;">S</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:pink;font-size:xx-large;">!</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></p><i></i>

Re: Outlook rules not running...
Did you uncheck the "Use User Error" checkbox?<br> <p><br><img src=http://www.xmenclan.org/avatars/ashaman2.jpg width=150 align=left><br><left><a href=http://www.dragontalonmercs.com>Dragon Talon Mercenary</a><br><a href=http://www.xmenclan.org>Member of the XMEN</a><br>Have a Nice Day!<br><br></left></p><i></i>

Re: Outlook rules not running...
You gotta remember that the rules are pretty exact, and often need to cover multiple bases, especially if you're on mailing lists. Sometimes messages on mailing lists are FROM the maillist server, sometimes they're TO it, and others have it CC'd or what not. <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.xmenclan.org/xmengambit.gif"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br>XMEN member<br>Card-carrying DTM<br>OKL Fish-napper<br><br>Though a program be but three lines long, someday it will have to be maintained.<br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> The Tao of Programming</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

Re: Outlook rules not running...
they work fine when I run 'em manually... they just don't run when the mail comes in...<br><br>all they do is check the title for a certain string and put them in the right folder <p><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-size:large;">C</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:orange;font-size:large;">O</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:green;font-size:large;">L</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-size:large;">O</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:indigo;font-size:large;">R</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:violet;font-size:large;">S</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:pink;font-size:xx-large;">!</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></p><i></i>

Re: Outlook rules not running...
Sometimes the order of the rules has effects you don't expect, too. <p></p><i></i>
Re: Outlook rules not running...
And some rules will continue after other rules. So at the end of a rule put "stop processing more rules" <p><div align="left"><hr color="#daae52"><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/gryphav.gif/sigs.php" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://www.thzclan.com/gryphav.gif"></a> <a href="http://www.thzclan.com/cam" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.thzclan.com/cam/gryphon/thb_ccam.jpg" border="0"></a><br><font size="1"><b><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/tcdb" target="_blank">Tribes Clan DB</a> - List your Tribes1/2 Clan, Guild, Fansite, League, or Script site<br><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/snooknet" target="_blank">SnookNet Web Design</a> - My web building adventures<br><a href="http://www.ryanaaron.com/dtm" target="_blank">Dragon Talon Mercenaries</a> - Online Gaming Guild<br><a href="http://www.planettribes.com" target="_blank">PlanetTribes</a> - Sp3ci@l pr0jekts<br><a href="http://www.3dactionplanet.com/planetside" target="_blank">PlanetSide Shuttle</a> - Newsie extraordinaire<br><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/hosted/planetside" target="_blank">Allied Tribal Forces</a> - A PlanetSide alliance started by Tribesplayers</font></b><hr color="#daae52"></div></p><i></i>
