Hello,

here's the problem:

In My InBox I have a folder named Employees and a subfolder
of this folder named MrSmith

I have two rules:
1. IF @comapny.com is in the sender header then move the
e-mail into the Employees folder
2. IF (e-mail address removed) is in the sender header then move
the e-mail into the MrSmith folder

the problem is that whenever I receive e-mail from MrSmith
it appears both in the Employees and MrSmith folders (it is
copied). Even when the 2. rule preceeds the 1. rule. Weird :/

this is just a simple example I have a more complicated
folder structure in my InBox so I would like to avoid
limiting the first rule by adding addresses in the "unless"
clause

Please give advice

Chris

Place the MrSmith rule first and add the "And stop processing more rules"
action to its action list.

Put the "stop processing more rules" action in the rules.
