I have created a ton of outlook rules since recently i've been added to a group which gets, in my opinion, spammed with emails like new stores opening, reports and emails about problems unrelated to my department or location (ie. a celebratory party for the completion or UAT....which is being held in another state) and i have made these rules to that emails that actually require my attention aren't buried under those that don't (if a failed report required my attention to fix i am contacted to fix it so i can monitor the failures).
when a new email comes into my inbox i make the rule to move it to another folder. these rules work fine automatically but when i run it manually it doesn't work
with the screenshot above if i hit "Run Now" for the single rule i have selected (i double check) it doesn't do anything and the email in my inbox i expect to move doesn't, however i made this rule 24 hours ago and i know it's working as the emails that was recived and matched the rule did get sent to the folder as expected. however i have a very similar rule which does work when i run it in this dialog when it's selected
But as you can see the only difference is the "New Item Alert" action but it's not this because i add it to the rule i'm tyring to run and no chnage
So why can't I run my rule manually in "Run Rules Now"
