Rules

[reno]

I have set up about 9 rules for E-m's. They seem to be in the correct order.
I have set the senders on the isp's spam fighter as safe. Yet, these msgs
end up in delete basket, but when I manually run the rules, it then sends
them where they belong.

I thought the E-ms were run against the rules and when the first instance of
a rule applied, further processing ceased?
Thanks

Only if you have the "stop processing more rules" action defined on the
rule.

i checked, there is no instance where stop processing additonal rules. the
rules seemed to work fine before a change to IE 7 Beta, i think this is just
coincidence??
thx

If you want a rule to be the last rule to act upon a message, you MUST
include the "stop processing more rules" action.
