Rules do not move message, they copy, How to stop this?
Tuesday afternoon
I use 9 rules to put messages where I want them, don't ya know. ALL rules are set to MOVE the message not copy. I get messages from 8 groups, some from Yahoo, and some others. Problem: a message comes from a one of the groups the first message filter parses the SUBJECT and copies the message to a designated folder another filter parses the FROM ADDRESS and copies it to a different designated folder For one email list the message is copied 4 times. I do not want to copy message. I want to move them. I have moved the filters up/down, no difference. Any thoughts?

To each rule's actions, add the "stop processing" action so that each message is processed by a maximum of one rule.

Add the "stop processing more rules" action to each rule that moves something if you don't want subsequent rules to also act upon the message. -- Brian Tillman I have moved the filters up/down, no difference.
