I like to set up rules to change the font color in my Inbox's message view to
help highlight ones sent to me.  However, there is a glitch where when the I
tell it to look for my name and change to a certain color, it doesn't work if
my name is further down than the seventh one.  For example, if I set up a
rule to change the font blue if my name is in the To: line, it will work as
long as my name shows up from 1 to 7 in the distribution list, but it will
stay the default color if my name is number 8 or more down the list.

I get a lot of e-mail and I usually ignore ones that aren't highlighted, but
I have been getting in trouble because of this problem and missing messages I
should have read.

not sure why it does that - how about you add the names of the DLs to the
rule?

I hope this helps you at least a little bit!
