OK here is what I did, the rules name is Delete spam:
Sub RunRuleDeleteSpam()
Application.Session.DefaultStore.GetRules.Item "Delete Spam.Execute"
End Sub

When I try to run it I get a run time error, The operation failed. An
object cannot be found. There is a number too.
I have the rule set up as Delete spam

then I made some changes and here is the string:
Sub RunRuleDeleteSpam()
Application.Session.DefaultStore.GetRules.Item Delete Spam.Execute
End Sub

now I am getting a syntax error

I am trying, never did this in the past, please be patient
