Removing Message Rules
 
I have about 50 different rules and would like to remove them all at once
without having to do it individually.

Is there a way to select them all for removal?

Thank you.

In the time it took you to type your post you could have deleted them
all manually.

1.. In Regedit, navigate to this key:

|--HKEY_CURRENT_USER
|-----Identities
|--------{GUID}
|-----------Software
|--------------Microsoft
|-----------------Outlook Express
|--------------------5.0

where GUID is the Global Unique IDentifier for your Identity.

2.. Under that key, you will find the following sub-keys, among
others:

|-----------------------Block Senders
|-----------------------Rules
|-----------------------Signatures

Select the Rules Key and delete it. This will remove *all* the rules.
