If it's Outlook, you're likely to get help faster if you ask in newsgroup: microsoft.public.outlook.general Mention which version of Outlook you are using, and that you are using it under Vista, in case this affects your answer. If it's Windows Mail, can you give us an example of such a rule? Also tell us what if any antivirus programs you have, and whether you have ever had a Norton or McAfee antivirus program on that computer, even one of the free trial versions that often come already installed on new computers. Some of the more popular antivirus programs tend to cause assorted problems in Windows Mail, although seldom immediately. |

| Guest | Re: can not block emails Message rules not working It's hard for us to tell what is wrong with your message rules without actually seeing them. One frequently overlooked aspect is that if you have more than one rule, each rule needs to be terminated with "Stop processing more rules". -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "PJ" <PJ@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:9B6B3F39-BE81-40BC-AEAD-02A7FCD1206A@xxxxxx Quote: >I have windows mail (Outlook) I have applied rules that if certain words are > in the subjuct line they are to be deleted but they are not.
