You don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation

I don't understand and don't know where to look at this issue.
People get error message "You don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation"
When they create a rule in Outlook to by choosing option "Have server reply with specific message"

For those of you who may have similar error message when creating outlook rule to have "server reply with a specific message"
this seems to be a bug related to Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2000 where I was able to get around this problem for Outlook 2003 users
Simply running outlook 2003 in safe mode, will allow you to create the rule without error.

For Outlook 2000 clients, still trying to solve the issue.

Very interesting! If you still have some Outlook 2003 users in that state, could you try some of the more granulat /safe:# switches to try to pinpoint where the problem might lie:

/safe:3 Starts Outlook with extensions turned off, but listed in the Add-In Manager.
/safe:4 Starts Outlook without loading Outcmd.dat (customized toolbars) and *.fav file.

Both safe switch options you mentioned works fine, no error.
If I start outlook without /safe switch I get error.

This switch doesn't seem to help outlook 2000 clients.
(However, so far I found 1 client with outlook 2000, works fine even without
switch)
There is a rights issue somewhere that are not in sync between client or
Exchange server.
Or it could be exchange server alone be acting up.

Nope,
de-selecting addins that are checked did not help

I guess the question now is, what file does outlook 2003 safe mode disables
from running to allow this rule to be run by users.
(Remind you that, regardless of what add-in, regardless of outlook version,
clients running, I can login as me to any pc, any client
I am ok creating this rule, because I am domain admin)

Don't know if this helps you.

Safe mode also disables COM add-ins, as well as the older add-ins in the Add-in Manager. Not all COM add-ins will show in the COM Add-ins manager dialog, though. In particular, those registered in HKLM will not be visible to the user. The VBA sample at http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=376 creates a report on *all* COM add-ins that might reveal something.

No COM -Addins were registered.
(My programmer tried run the code in VB)

Consultant that we hired will re-install exchange server.
There are weird issues with Exchange...
