1. Make a note of all your MLM rules. Close Entourage. 2. In Finder, go to /Microsoft User Data/Office X Identities/<your-primary-identity>/. Locate the file called "Rules". 3. Move this file to another folder for safekeeping, and rename it, e.g., "Saved Rules". 4. Relaunch Entourage. You should now have zero rules (a new Rules file will be created). Test your "minders" problem; it should be entirely gone. If so, recreate your Spamsieve rule and your MLM rules, and you are on your way. -- Microsoft MVP for Entourage/OE/Word (MVPs are volunteers) Allen Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Entourage FAQ site: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> AppleScripts for Outlook Express and Entourage: <http://members.thinkaccess.net/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/Scripts/> Entourage Help Pages: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
