Default Can't delete certain outlook rules (OL 2003)

I don't know how that rule comes into being. When I Upgraded Outlook 2003
to Outlook 2007, it simply appeared. I've deleted it. It will be most
interesting to see if it re-appears. There's nothing I can think of that I
set on the Exchange Server (2003, SP2) that would account for it's presence.
I've also looked at a number of Outlook 2003 installations around the
building, none of which have this rule.

I have 2 rules that can't be disabled or deleted. One of them is the
"clear categories on mail" rule and another looks to be something
specific to my system a rule labeled . I have
done a ton of searching, but can't seem to find a tool/method to pry
these buggers out of my rules list. ALso, I am very conffused as to
why O can not unselect them. If I clear the box, it re-checks
immediately.


I have the "clear catregories" rule as well and I get rid of it buy
exporting my rules, starting Outlook with the /cleanrules switch, then
importing the rules. I can then delete the rule. I believe our Exchange
admin adds it, but I don't need or want it.
