I just tried this, and no joy unfortunately. I even quit and
re-launched.
I have been having the exact same problem. Interestingly, the use of
rules in defining smart mailboxes seems to be fine, and at least some of
my old rules are working. I just cannot seem to get a new rule to work.
I have seen anomalies in development of rules, too -- I was trying to
build them using tagging as the action (so I could easily see the effect
of a rule), I would add and then delete conjuncts to a rule and this
change was not idempotent: the rules would stop working with the new
conjunct, but would not start working again when I deleted it.
I have a vague memory of Benny saying there was some way to debug the
rules (by enabling some kind of MM logging to the screen), but I have
forgotten how to do it. 😢 I think I had to toggle some preference and
then start MailMate from the command line...
