Rule copies message

[Jim K]

Several rules, in Outlook 2003, copy the message instead of moving it. For
example, a simple rule states "Apply this rule after message arrives from
Kristi and move it to the Kristi folder."

The messages are copied to the Kristi folder, and a copy retained in my
inbox. This happens for several rules. Why doesn't "move" mean just that to
Outlook?

Does it work when you disale all the other rules? When more than one rule
applies they will all be executed. To prevent this add the action "stop
processing rules" to the rule and sort your rules correctly.
