No need to post more than once.

If you have Junk E-mail enabled, in addition to the Junk Senders and Adult
Content Senders list, there is also a junk mail filter that scans the body
of the message and flags messages as junk based on the content it finds.
This filter, to the best of my knowledge, cannot be disabled as long as the
other junk mail handling is enabled.

If I remember Outlook 2000 correctly, the default behavior for the junk mail
organizer is to display the subject of a message a color you select, rather
than move the message into a separate folder or delete it. My suggestion is
to remove the rule that deleted junk mail and allow Outlook to simply color
the subject line so that you can review all suspect messages prior to
deleting them manually, or change the rule to move the messages to a folder
instead of deleting them. You can them review the messaegs in that folder
prior to deleting them.

Also, make sure you have "stop processing more rules" on your rule that
delivers specific mesasges to the inbox to prevent the subsequent rules from
overriding the first one.
