However you can drag the message to the desktop and then back into a local folder. This will cause you to have a duplicate message but this new message will not have had rules run on it. When you now Apply all rules, the MLM should fire and you can help determine which rule is causing the problem. -- Diane Ross Entourage Help Page <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> The Entourage Blog lists the EHP as one of the top five Microsoft Entourage resources. <http://blogs.msdn.com/entourage/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
