How do I get Outlook 2003 rules to work?

C

Chris Moon

My rules do not work. I have created a rule to operate when new message
arrives that contains "XXX" or "YYY" in the sender's address, to delete it.
It does not work, either on new messages or when I run it on the existing
folders. I have selected Inbox as the place to run it.

I am out of ideas. Help anyone?

What's the exact syntax of the rule? I mean, the obvious answer is 'If the
rule isn't working when you run it manually, then the message you expect
the rule to run against doesn't match the rule.'
