Rules Wizard Failure

I receive many tech emails (approx 45 per morning). Upon checking for mail, I manually placed them in corresponding folders. I decided to add rules to automatically move messages to the appropriate folder upon receipt. The wizard runs upon receipt, but places all messages in the first folder it goes to.

Info:
8 Rules based on subject/content.
8 Folders located in secondary .pst.

I have verified that all rules are "checked" to run.

Any ideas?

Rules are run sequentially. If all messages meet the criteria of your first rule, and also meet criteria of another rule, the first rule will be applied to all messages and the subsequnet rules will be ignored. If you'd like to post your rules, maybe we could troubleshoot better.

Rules by order and search criteria:

1) Network+
2) 70-221
3) 70-216
4) 70-215
5) 70-210
6) Linux+
7) CCNA
8) A+

Messages will not contain references to other search criteria.
