Rule won't work

Outlook 2007
I have set up a rule to do the following;
When I send or receive a message from a specific contact, play a sound,
display in new item alert window, flag for follow up and move to a specific
folder. But it is not doing anything. Do I need to change something else?

Thanks Diane, regular email account, no other rules set up, and the message
just goes into the in box.

Do other rules work?
Does it work if you use any one action?

Are you looking for sender's name or some other condition?
Test it with just the new alert window and flag. Does it work?
