Outlook Connector

[Bishop772]

Why does Outlook Connector add my hotmail account as MAPI?
Why does a Rule run perfectly when I run it manually, but never runs
automatically (move email from hotmail inbox to folder on PC)?
Why, does this rule display correctly when clicking on Tools, Rules and
Alerts, but does not display at all, when clicking on the Run Rules Nows
button (manually added to toolbar)?
Support has told me that Outlook Connector does not work with Rules for
Hotmail. However, the fact that I can run the rule all the time from Tools,
Rules and Alerts, Run Rules Now...., tells me the opposite. This looks like
a bug to me.

Thanks.

Support is correct. Running rules at send/receive interval is not possible
for the Outlook Connector. It is always possible to do it manually as this
doesn't integrate with the send/receive process.

If you are in the Outlook Connector mailbox and then press your custom Run
Rules Now... button then it will load the rules for that account (from
within the pst-file). When you select a folder from your default storage
location, then you'll see all rules.
