MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / January 2008Specified file in rule changes
I've made a rule for Outlook 2007 to say that every time a message arrives in a specified account it should be moved to a specified folder. Every time I say Okay or Apply, the account changes to a different account. Other rules like this pointing to different accounts work fine. Deleting and recreating the rule makes no difference. Any thoughts? Thanks. -Dick Startz what type acct is it?

The ISP is Comcast. I have no other problem with a similar rule for another Comcast account nor for rules for pop accounts from other providers. It's just weird.

Is this a totally separate address or is it in a catchall account where many addresses use the same inbox?

(It is one of several different addresses I have at Comcast.) In fact, when I say Apply after setting up the rule, the account changes-while i watch- to one from a different ISP. >It should work on pop3.

I have the same problem. I just purchased a new PC with Outlook 2007 and imported my rules from Outlook 2003. The rule worked fine in 2003 but not in 2007. I cannot get the rule to keep the same account that I want it to check and move incoming mail to a specified folder. It continually substitutes another email account no matter if it is moved up or down in the rules list. > If I understand the question, it is a totally separate address.
