Jennifer, my most sincere thanks to you for that solution as it worked. I seem to have missed implementing the last couple of steps, namely to check to turn on rule before clicking finish. In the meantime I have in excess of 100 messages in my inbox to move to approriate folder. Up till now I have been spending between 30 to 45 mins per day relocating them. I guess with your help I can afford the time to stick around.

Try running through again and see if you can't get it to work Tools Rules wizard New Move messages based on content with "newbie" in the subject or body Move it to the "newbie" folder (make sure you have a newbie folder) Choose next Make sure with specific words in the subject or body is checked. look at the lower pane and make sure the info is filled in Next Make sure the move it the the speciefied folder is filled out look at the lowe pane and make sure the info is filled in Next Add any exceptions to the rule. Next Name rule Check Turn on this rule box Finish Then click run now Make sure the check box next to the rule you want to run is checked on the next screen. Also check the "apply rules to" and "run in folder (inbox)" are correct. the rule should now run. ---------------------------------------- -- Jennifer #221463 Yahoo IM: jlynn2k #include <wisdom.h> void ignorance (it offers no value)
