Especially, always keep the text string (standing for people) that you use, flexible.

Well, shortened the "people" line to
Allrecipes Daily Dish
, and it worked. Thanks!

I suspect that the text in the from field is not appearing exactly as you say it should in the rule. If you're off by even 1 character, the rule won't work. Try to find the smallest, most reliable identifying chunk of text that will identify the messages you want

For example, if the word "allrecipes" is unique to your desired messages, then just use that little piece in the rule. check one of the messages with the jaws cursor to get the exact spelling and spacing.

I have set up a message rule, but it is not working. Rule and Description is:
Where the From line contains
Allrecipes Daily Dish <[email protected]>
, which is according to "Where the From line contains People, which is checked. Then, I have it moved to the specified folder, which is Recipes, and I applied it to the Inbox folder. When I try this with that From line, it does not apply the rule. What's the problem?

TIA,

Nance
