And you expected a reply from participants of a /*17-MONTH OLD*/ thread?
Next time notice the datestamps before replying.
And why are you trying to hijack someone else's thread to get help on your
own problem? You haven't a clue if you have the same setup as the original
poster. For example, you don't know if you have the same type of e-mail
account. Perhaps you happen to use IMAP and it isn't Outlook that is moving
anything but instead the server-side junk filtering. Start your own NEW
thread giving details of YOUR setup and YOUR problem.

A leech site pretending to have forums by running a webnews-for-dummies
interface that submits improperly formatted posts through a gateway to
Usenet (aka newsgroups).
--- Posting Hints ---
ALWAYS REVIEW your message before submitting it. You want someone OTHER
than yourself to understand your post. Also remember that no one here is
looking over your shoulder to see at what you are pointing. If you don't
well explain your situation by providing the details that you already know,
don't expect others to know what is your situation. Explain YOUR computing
environment and just what actions you take to reproduce the problem.
Often you get just one chance per potential respondent to elicit a reply
from them. If they skip your post because you gave them nothing to go on
(no details, no versions, no OS, no context) then they will usually move on
to the next post and never return to yours.
What is Usenet (aka newsgroups):

When using a webnews-for-dummies interface, like Microsoft's Communities or
Google Groups or a forum-to-Usenet proxy, those are gateways to leech from
Usenet or to provide web-based access for Usenet-ignorant users. Despite
the appearance of a forum, you are still participating in Usenet.
