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.
