Outlook blocking our own domain

This problem just appeared up this week. SBS 2003 Premium. Exchange 2003.
About 30 clients running Outlook 2003, and a couple using Outlook 2007.

One user (the owner) using Outlook 2003 has had half a dozen or so emails
from within our company sent to his Junk Email folder by Outlook. I set our
domain as a safe sender and it shows up in the safe senders list as
"@ourdomain.net". Following the examples they use, I tried adding just
"ourdomain.net" (no @) but it doesn't appear to be showing up on the list,
even after restarting Outlook.

Any idea why our domain would suddenly start getting sporadically shifted to
Junk Email, and why setting it as a safe sender is being ignored?

TIA
 
Is it all mail from your domain or only some? If only some, is there
something in the message subject that you have rules set to delete, like
"free" or some other common term?
 
Thanks for the response,

Only some messages--maybe half a dozen internal emails Monday and Tuesday.
It doesn't appear to be triggered by any rules. The subjects were things
like "Nintendo/Quaker - 'Murder 101'" and "Am Heart/Avaya - 'Murder 101'"

Oops. It looks like it was a bad rule set-up. Sorry for the false alarm.

Not a problem, although I must admit from your mail subjects, you work in a VERY interesting company!
