The number of rule is not the main factor, but between rules and Blocked Senders, you can only have 4096 entries. (i.e,), if you had only one rule for a subject, and tried to put in 4097 subjects, you are SOL.
IMHO, if you have 600 folders, and 130 rules, I think you should be looking for a sturdier program than OE.
If you stick with OE, at least learn to back it up daily. The rules could have been replaced in minutes.
This freeware tool backs up everything in OE in seconds. Disregard what is written in red. That is referring to a different program.

I'm having a problem with my message rules. With may outlook express I have over 600 dbx file/folder to keep tack of my mail. to help manage the common received mail I setup over 130 message rules. Some how my Outlook Express hiccupped I get some message saying something about a error it shutdown Outlook Express and on restart I loss all my message rules. I was redoing them was up to about thirty and the program did it again. I could use some help thoughts on this problem. For starters just what file is this and what folder is it in. If it getting deleted I could copy a back up file to reinstall if lost at the least.
