If you create a new rule, select "run rule now," and then cancel running the rule, you receive the following warning message:

This rule could not be created. Check your folder permissions.



CAUSE
You cancelled the rule before it ran. If you choose not to run the rule, or you allow the rule to run to completion, you do not receive this warning.



RESOLUTION
Either allow the rule to run without interruption, or do not select "run rule now." The rule appears when you click Rules Wizard on the View menu. The rule is saved, even though the warning message says it could not be created.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
