Configuration:I have one POP mail account, Local Mail and Outlook Mail import. 
On looking at the Profile Folder I see that I have two other Pop Mail accounts
in there (in the folder names) from previous configurations.  I have some
newsgroups subscribed to that I rarely use.  I am on a DSL connection that
checks for mail every 3 minutes.  
  
I have two rules set up already that are working fine whenever mail arrives. 
These rules move Mail to a folder off the Outlook Mail root.  

I set up another RUle and run it on the inbox.  All inbox mail dissapears.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new rule moving inbox mail based on a word in the senders name (in
this case Microsoft) and move it to another folder Outlook/Business/Microsoft.
2.Run the rule on the inbox.


Actual Results:  
All inbox mail dissappears

Expected Results:  
Moved only mail form Microsoft to the appropriate folder.

Please post the exact rule here. Are all mails moved to the destination folder
or disappear all mails from inbox (and you can not find them anywhere)?

Mike Doyle:
If you created a rule to filter all mails with "Microsoft" in the header, all
mails sent with Outlook would be affected by the filter. Perhaps that is what
happened?

Looked over my rules again - all of them this time - and I had added a condition
to a previous rule to move if message was read.  Unfortunately I did not select
"Match all of the following".  As the rules are applied in real time when the
message is received the "read" condition was never triggered.  However when I
added a new rule and ran all rules on the inbox, the "read" condition was
triggered and all the messages were moved to another folder.  

Sorry for the touble.
