Outlook 2003 Rules And Alerts

[Guest]

In Outlook 2003, I Have a pop3 email account that has it's own folder,
and a folder underneath it called 'forums'.
Certain websites I visit I subscribe to their forums, and they send me an
email when a reply is posted to a topic I post in.
I have a rule setup among the lines of:
"when email arrives in (pop3 account name),
from (forum sender from name), MOVE to
(forums folder) folder".
problem is, when new emails are received from there, instead of moving the
email to the folder, it copies it to the forums folder, now making the same
message appear in the pop3 folder and the forums folder, but, even better,
when it goes to the run the rule again, it leaves the email in the pop3
folder, and makes yet another copy in the forums folder, this makes no sense,
I strictly told it to MOVE, which implies move and delete previous, not COPY
to the specified folder.

any help or ideas would be appreciated.

HI Chirs,
please insert at least "stop running other/more rules" in your rule!!
Sorry I have only the german version, but there is only one option called
like this!
