Rules not working after profile change

[Alan Z. Scharf]

1. I created a new mail profile to solve problem of email stuck in Outbox.

2, After re-starting Outlook, Rules to flag email and put in Alert window
no
longer work.

3. In Rules Wizard '(for other machine)' now appears after each Rule Name
iin Wizard's first screen.

4. "On this Machine' is checked in options.

Any ideas on how to get the rules to work again without redefining them?

Thanks.

Alan

Unless you can open the old profile and remove the 'this machine only' tag,
or remove it from the rule, you]'ll need to make new rules.

Have you tried exporting and reimporting them?

,

Thanks for your replies.

I was able to uncheck For This Machine Only in the present profile, and that
seemed to work.

Regards,

Alan
