I have figured out the reason for my problem. It turned out that the message I was struggling with indeed could have been processed by a MLM (Mailing List Manager) rule. It wasn't a mailing list message, rather it was a list statistic message so it did not occur to me that it could have looked like a MLM message to Entourage. Don't process rules on this MLM was indeed checked.
Conclusions ... 1) MLM actions cannot be applied against one or more messages after the messages arrive. 2) Rules can be re-run on messages. 3) Even when manually executing Rules on messages - and even though MLM actions are not processed - the "Do Not Process Rules" check box is honored when you initiate rules manually through the menus or control-click. My user feedback ... It is very non-intuitive for MLM actions to affect manually instigated rules. I'd like to be able to run MLM actions on messages using a context sensitive pop-up.
