Hi,

I have a number of Public Folders that handle our info@, sales@, etc.
mail addresses. Each folder has 2 rules... the first looks for messages
marked by our anti-Spam tool (which modifies the subject) and handles
them. The second forwards all messages to relevant groups of people.

Periodically, I'm finding that one or other of these rules have become
disabled... if I look at PF | Properties | Administration | Folder
Assistant, the checkbox next to the rules is coloured RED.

Any thoughts on why this might occur? If I select the disabled rule |
Edit | Ok, it'll sort itself out.

Today, I discovered this after a reboot of the server (actually, a power
failure over the weekend), but I'm not sure it doesn't happen without a
reboot sometimes.

Thanks,
Jon
