Default Rules and Alerts dialog fails to launch

When I click on Rules and Alerts in the Tools menu, a dialog appears and
fades almost instantly. What can I do to make the dialog stay visible?

Default Rules and Alerts dialog fails to launch

Hard to say without any configuration information.
Also, do you get any error messages?

What configuration do you need to diagnose? Where can I find it?

Thanks,

In About Microsoft Outlook:
Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 (12.0.6300.5000) SP1 MSO (12.0.6213.1000)

In Account Settings I have 3 accounts all set to: MAPI

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
George

So these are Hotmail accounts then? Those do not support rules from Outlook.
You'll have to set them in the web interface of Hotmail itself.
