I've made a rule for Outlook 2007 to say that every time a message
arrives in a specified account it should be moved to a specified folder. Every time I say Okay or Apply, the account changes to a different account. Other rules like this pointing to different accounts work fine. Deleting and recreating the rule makes no difference. Any thoughts? Thanks. -Dick Startz |

It's a POP account. The ISP is Comcast. I have no other problem with a
similar rule for another Comcast account nor for rules for pop accounts from other providers. It's just weird. Any suggestions gratefully received.

If I understand the question, it is a totally separate address. (It is
one of several different addresses I have at Comcast.) In fact, when I say Apply after setting up the rule, the account changes-while i watch- to one from a different ISP.

Hello. I have the same problem. I just purchased a new PC with Outlook 2007
and imported my rules from Outlook 2003. The rule worked fine in 2003 but not in 2007. I cannot get the rule to keep the same account that I want it to check and move incoming mail to a specified folder. It continually substitutes another email account no matter if it is moved up or down in the rules list. " wrote: If I understand the question, it is a totally separate address.
