Rule to delete junk mail does not always work
 

I have created a rule to delete any mail which contain certain characters or
words. This appears to work sometimes but some of the mail containing these
words still gets through (usually finish up in the Junk mail folder). When
I run the rule on the Junk Mail folder these emails get deleted! So the
rule would seem to be ok.

Any idea why the rule does not always work?

If your rule is examining HTML messages, it probably won't work.

Is there any way round this?
