Windows Mail- Delete it from Server

[rbernal43]

I have been using "Delete it from Server" option in Windows Mail Rules
successfully for a number of years now until recently. The I noticed i began
receiving mails that I have defined to be deleted from server. To further
this, I used another email address defining the emails from this address to
be deleted from server but the emails still come through.

Can anyone enlighten and help me on this? I am using Vista Home Basic and
updated to the most current. The mail program is the Windows Mail.

Have all rules that Delete from the server first on your list of rules, use
the 'move up' button on the rules set up window.

Always select 'stop processing more rules' with this type of rule.

Obtain the senders address from the messages headers, by using Ctrl + F3 on
the selected message.
