If you are using the Mailing List Manager (MLM) correctly, you shouldn¹t have too many of those to check destination folder. For your rules, you should look at using Categories as much as possible over using individual email addresses. This reduces the possibility of error and will automatically include any new addresses added to that category. > > Is there a way to ³reset² the inbox so that all items (or selected items) look > like new mail, and then re-apply MLM and rules to the contents?

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. Remember the key to rules working correctly is an updated Address Book with categories assigned to each entry. -- Diane Ross, Microsoft Mac MVP Entourage Help Page <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> One of the top five MS Entourage resources listed on the Entourage Blog. <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/>
