Tools | Message Rules | Mail should give a list of message rules. Only the
ones that are checked will be applied automatically. In addition, any rules
moving a message to another folder, including deleting a message, should
also have the action to Stop processing more rules or a message rule that is
lower down on the list may over ride the move operation.
