Rule BEFORE junk mail processing

I am trying to create rules to delete some messages that end up in the Junk
E-Mail folder, but these rules are not working. It looks like the message
is going to Junk E-Mail before the rule gets a chance to run. Any ideas how
I can accomplish this?
 
Outlook 2003? Did you install SP1?

They changed the behavior with SP1 - now rules after the junk filter in SP1
(because of a huge number of complaints because they ran first). I don't
know of any way to change it.

Have been having the same problem , just found this on the Office Support site:
=========================================
Rules are now designed so that they do not act on messages that have been
moved to the Junk E-mail folder. This keeps e-mail considered to be junk in
the correct place rather than moving it to another folder according to the
rule.
==========================================

So I guess we are stuck with it.
