Can't process rules in Outlook XP
Hello there. One Outlook XP client in my company network
is having problems every time he tries to run rules manually. The reason why he is trying to run the rules manually is because they are not working.We have a 200 Exchange server in my company. This particular person has about 15 rules setup. Some of which have the "stop processing more rules" in the rule itself. This is the error message he gets. "One or More rules could not be uploaded to exchange server and have been deactivated. This could be because some of the paramaters are not supported or there is insufficient space to store all of your rules" Any and all advice is appreciated. .. |

Can't process rules in Outlook XP
Hi There,
You could be running into a limit or you could also have some corrupt rules. Microsoft Exchange has a 32K limit for the rules. The maximum number of rules depends on the size of the rules defined and the amount of data required for a rule varies depending on the rule. For example, a rule to move messages into a folder, for a single recipient, takes about 660 bytes. Hence there is no defined limit for the maximum number of rules that can be assigned to a folder. This issue is documented in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) 147298 XCLN: Maximum Number of Rules Per Folder http://support.microsoft.com/?id=147298 Since some corrupted rules may also cause this problem, I suggest that you remove the old rules and re-set up them manually to see if the problem still appears. If you can't remove a rule from within Outlook then you could use the Mdvu32 utility as documented in the article below.
