Just categorisation I think, reviewing the previous posts and my own
experience

Is this just an OL2007 issue or an issue w/categorization? I've never had
any issues using rules prior to this version. Other rules run just fine
that are set to process items as they hit the Inbox. The emails that are
downloading --that I setup a rule on-- are work related emails that are
only a few K in size. If one must go to Tools | Rules & Alerts select
the rule to run from the dialog box and then run it, well, doesn't that
remove several layers of usefulness from the feature? One of the cool
things about a rule is that it run automatically --at least it was one of
the cool things about it.

You experience is correct on HTTP, not on POP3. POP3, provided the entire
message is downloaded, should work fine on download.

Jerry,

My 2007 experience is that message rules cannot be applied to HTTP
accounts and have to be applied manually to POP accounts.

It is a POP3 account.

how does the rule read?

I assume you mean this located in the Rule description text box?

"Apply this rule after the message arrives from assign it to
the z category"

Like I said, if I run the rule manually it works perfectly.

I have Outlook 2007. I have setup a rule to categorize my mail when it
arrives in the Inbox. Inexplicably this fails. It fails in spite of
the fact that if I run the rule manually it works perfectly. I have
the rule set with the highest priority. Does anyone know why this
fails?

Ok

Here is my situation.
2 Pop3 accounts setup, both with seperate pst files, one account just
goes into Inbox, other email account has the emails incoming from
going into folder A while emails coming from go into
another one when being sent to my email address. Only
problem is, the emails are in the inbox of the pst file as well as in
the folder I directed them to. I dont want copies going into my inbox.
I want them to go into my folder as specified.

Any solutions would be appreciated.

Cheers
Jon

do the rules include a stop processing in the rule?
