OS: Vista Home Prem, no SP1, yet.
Window Mail
Norton 360, but it is NOT set to scan email.
AVG: but email scanner is NOT installed.
Have quite a few mail rules to direct incoming mail to subfolders. Each
rule ends with "Stop processing more rules".
Rules work consistently, EXCEPT when first starting Win Mail. What often
(though not always) happens upon start is that some messages are not being
processed by the rules and are left in the Inbox. These messages have the
same rule-related characteristics as messages successfully processed by the
rule that were processed earlier when WinMail was already running at the
time message was received.
I've verified that the rule is correct by then using the "Apply Now" feature
for the rule that should handle such messages. The messages then get
directed to the correct subfolder.
This does NOT occur with just one rule, but seems to happen randomly,
depending upon which messages are being received when WinMail starts up.
It's almost as if WinMail begins to download messages before the rules have
been loaded. Don't know if there is such a sequence in WinMail.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
