Have you been able to narrow it down? Recently I thought I understood what
was happening, that WM's internal junk mail filter was processing messages
before my own rules could grab them. But then I realized that SOME messages
ARE correctly routed to their folders, and that it seems entirely random
which ones are and which aren't. Now I think it's just absolutely erratic.
Really annoying. And before getting your message I thought I was the only
one!
