Entourage sync with .Mac

H

HWeiland

Hello,
I have created a rule in Entourage that will copy a message to my .Mac
account (which acts like an exchange server).
The problem with the rule is that it keeps on repeating without stopping the
copying process once selecting all messages in a folder; hence creating
unlimited amounts of copies of a message on my .Mac account.

How do I modify the rule to run only once, or otherwise only move one copy
of a message.

Thank you.

Regards,

hweiland

Hi hweiland!

Can you please post your exact rule settings? I'd like to see if I can
reproduce this with my .Mac account.

Thanks! bill

Rule:
- If: (Execute: if all criteria are met)
- Folder is 'hweilandmail'
- Then:
- Copy Message 'hweilanddotmac'
- Do not apply other rules

I execute the rule by highlighting the e-mails I want to copy, and running
the rule under the 'right-click + Apply Rule' menu.

Thanks in advance for any help!
