Ok, here is my 74 cents.   Its more than two because I have done this.

In the Exchange SDK, there is a DLL that you can compile that, with a bit of
vb code (or vbscript), will allow you to create a rule on each mailbox.
Problem is the rule can only be manipulated in code.  It does not show in
the rules wizard, etc.   I use it for a SPAM management routine we have
here.  

Personally, I hate it.  If you find something that creates a "NORMAL" rule
please let me know.
Also some other problems with rules migrating to Outlook XP, but I cant say
for sure that it is the result of using that DLL to create a rule.

Its ugly and no fun at all.  I have yet to find an alternative though.
