What version of Outlook? What does the rule do? What type of mail server?
Is the password on a different PST then where you get your mail?

The password is required when the .pst file is opened, not when new
e-mails get yanked from your mail server(s).
Haven't a clue what you were trying to say here. It's all jumbled.
Don't know what "it" is. You first say the rule can't run and now you
say it can.
Client-side rules run ONLY when the e-mail client is running in which
those rules are defined. If you don't have Outlook loaded then none of
its rules get exercised against new mails. Outlook isn't running to
receive new mails against which the rules would get exercised. Outlook
isn't running so it obviously cannot do anything, including exercizing
its rules.
Since you are loading Outlook, and since you need to supply the password
to your .pst file when it gets opened when Outlook is loaded, then the
password is irrelevant. The password was already supplied when the .pst
file got opened when you started Outlook. Since rules can only be
exercised by Outlook where they are defined, and if you have .pst files
other than for your local (default) message store, like for archive.pst
files, you must open them in Outlook. Once opened, they will reopen
each time you load Outlook which also means you need to supply their
password when they get opened. So, again, the password is irrelevant
because you already opened the .pst file and had to supply the password
at that time.
Rules only get exercised when a new mail is received, not after it got
received - unless you run them manually. When a new mail arrives, each
rule gets exercised against it (unless a previous rule with a
stop-clause got trigger so subsequent rules don't get tested against the
same mail item). New mails are delivered only to your local (default)
message store for each account (POP3 and Exchange accounts get
aggregated into one message store while each IMAP and HTTP account gets
its own message store). It is only on delivery when the rules are
applied. You can run the rule manually on your local message or against
others that you have opened in Outlook. Since new mail is not delivered
to the other opened message stores, like archive.pst files, no rules get
exercised against them automatically so you will need to manually run
the rules against them.
Server-side rules, if available (use the webmail interface to your
account to define them), are exercised immediately upon receipt of new
mails into your mailbox on that server.
