roaming profile make rules disabled - removed folders

Postby William » Wed Nov 08, 2006 5:53 am

I moved to a different PC and logged in and opened up outlook2000.
There was an error message saying that one or more of the rules could not be run so would be disabled.
I looked at the rules and they were all disabled, not only that though, they were all 'check for text in message and move to folder type rules' which had all their destination folders removed.

I corrected all the rules and enabled them. Logged off and returned the next day to my usual pc and the same thing had happened.

The strange thing is that all the new email had been moved to the correct folders before the error msg saying the rules had been disabled popped up on my screen.

I have searched this forum and found nothing similar.

Where the rules that were disabled moving items to personal folders rather then to a folder on the Scalix system? We had this happen at our site and the reason the rules were getting disabled was the user had personal folders on her work machine and was moving all Spam messages there, and when she would log in from home she would not have these personal folders and the rules would bomb. Just something to check.

I did a search on my harddrive for *.pst files and only found my archive.pst file.

The folders in question are all subfolders of the inbox, they were all created from within outlook.

roaming profile rules blues

I get this error when logging into a different workstation. The same thing happens when I move to another workstation. I did not log into more than one workstation at a time.

all the messages etc are stored on the server as far as I can tell.


another strange thing is that the rules all have thierdestination folders missing, well it is not possible to just update a few of the rules with their destination folders since the save changes button invokes an error. For some reason disabled rules cannot not be left disabled..

Code: Select all

When an incoming message arrives:
with 'drbd-announce' or 'drbd-user' in the message header

Perform the following actions:
move it to the specified folder
