Outlook 2003: Client-Only Rule

[Guest]

I have a rule set up to move mail with a certain subject to a specific
mailbox, then to a specific folder, then to automatically print. The only
part of this rule that works is moving it to the specific mailbox. I can get
it to move to the specific folder & print if I go into the rule and click on
"run rule now" which defeats the purpose of having a rule. Does anyone know
why this rule would not work? Thanks in advance.

could be because its moved before printing... do you have stop processing
turned on for that rule?

I don't know how to turn on "stop processing." I'm not sure if it is turned
on.

it should be the last thing in the rule - there is a check box for it in
Actions in the rules wizard.

on.

I found where you turn on "stop processing" and it is not turned on.

then its probably not because its being moved. Does the rule work if you set
a flag instead of moving? Or set a flag instead of printing? (this will help
us see where it fails)

It doesn't work when I set a flag instead of printing, but setting a flag is
also a client-only rule.

I tried setting a flag instead of moving, but it also didn't work.

oops, I forgot about that.

is the printer local or networked?
