Hello,
I'm trying to debug rules in outlook emqil client.

Is there a log file which tells which rule was triggered to classify a
message?

Thks, Chris
 
No, but you could add that information to each item by including a rule action to set a category that refers to the name of the rule.

Thanks for the answer.

Rather than use a category, is there a way to add rule to write a line in a
log file?

My problem is that I have lots of accounts and folders and that I lose track
of messages.

You'd have to write Outlook VBA code to do that.

Sounds like you might need to make stronger use of Outlook 2003's search folders feature. I don't see how a log file is going to help you find messages.
