Hi Rich,

First open each of your Jaws folders and move the messages into your In Box. 
After all of your messages are in your In Box highlight each folder and 
delete it except for one.  This is the folder you are going
to import your messages into.  I have tweaked Making Message Rules a little 
bit so try following the steps the way they are below.  If you still can't 
get it done and you are in the U.S. or Canada I may be able to help you over 
the phone.  I hope these steps will get you over the hump though.  Take 
care.
