Why does OL skip processing of rules sometimes?

....Like when I am trying to do something else like open a mail item, etc.

I know that this takes cycles away from other activities, but still, why
can't the thing keep track of pending moves that need to be made and 'catch
up' later when it has the chance? This seems to be exactly the kind of
tedious task computers are well-suited for! ;-) The alternative, me having
to manually re-run the rules is defeating the entire purpose of why I have
these rules in the first place! Filtering of emails is not the kind of
process that I would expect to slow my system to such a crawl that it
'forgets' what it was doing...

It looks like there is room for major improvement here.

OL 2002, by the way.

Is the newer version improved in this regard?

Any info would be most appreciated!


Thanks,

Kris
