Outlook...Properties...Folder Assistant...Status

[Fred]

We have developed a custom form which can be moved
from one folder to another. In addition, the folder
where this form is transferred is set-up in such a
way that an "Edit Rule" has been set to automatically
e-mail these forms to a list of e-mail addresses. This
is done in the "Properties" of the receiving
Folder... "Administration" Tab... "Folder Assistant"
command button...and "Edit Rule".

My problem is that whenever a form is transferred to
the receiving folder, the "Status" of the Folder
Assistant gets "disabled" (red crossed), thereby
canceling the "auto distribution/e-mail". I have to
manually enable this status all the time.

Is there something that I have to do to make this status
permanently enabled and not only good for one transfer?

Thanks....

What is the exact rule you're applying?

- "Condition" is "All Messages"
- "Action" is "FORWARD TO:....e-mail addresses..."

Are all the e-mail addresses valid? I think that might cause the rule to become disabled. Do other rules on the same folder work?
