Thanks for replying, Diane. Good theory, but I doubt that it applies here.
I have four mailing list rules, and three additional rules, which do nothing more than filtering junk mail by looking for certain header items and attachment types. None of these rules should have triggered on the messages that were disappearing and then reappearing. The only other "rule" that I have enabled is the Entourage junk mail filter, with the detection sensitivity set to High. But why would this filter cause a message to vanish and then reappear in the inbox?
