How do I delete all Rules in Outlook 2000 on WIndows XP Home

[Naum Litvin]

I did Tools-Rulez Wizard and deleted them all one by one. Restarted Outlook
and they all are there again as if I did not touch them... I found the
"Microsoft Outlook Internet Settings.RWZ" file in the "C:\Documents and
Settings\NSL-1\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook" folder, RENAMED it,
restarted Outlook - same thing, rules are there... How to get rid of them?

Thanks
Naum

did you click the Apply button when you deleted the rules?

Judy,

Thanks for responding. It took me few days to get to my computer to check.
It was shut down while I was away. When I booted it up and went to the Rules
Wizard all rules were gone!! Maybe rebooting was all that was needed? That
computer is a Toshiba notebook with XP Home and Outlook 2000. I checked on
another machine, a desktop with Windows 2000 and Outlook 2000 - I can delete
rules with no problems and they do not show up... To make long story short
the problem disappeared, but your help is appreciated anyway.

BTW I do not see any "Apply" buttons in Rules Wizard, only "OK"...

Regards
Naum Litvin

Glad to hear it's going now.

I see one - bottom right corner. Everytime I change a setting on Rules it
activates.
