Outlook rule does not work

I am trying to handle some of the spam I get by using Outlook (2003)
Rules. I have created a rule where if the body of the message contains
the word 'hoodia' to delete the message. It simply does not work. I
can see the word, and it is not obfuscated using any HTML tricks, but
when I run the rule, the message is not deleted.

Any ideas?
 
Judging by the lack of response, should I assume that Outlook 2k3 rules
just don't work?

Thanks

It appears that if the message is not Plain Text, the rule won't find the
string.
