Rules applied out of order

Hi - I am using Windows Mail and have a few different rules set up. But
Windows Mail seems to be applying them out of order. My first rule is to move
any messages containing the phrase "SPAM" in the subject to my Junk E-Mail
folder. I have multiple email accounts, so subsequent rules move the email to
folders based on who it is sent to. But I keep getting emails with "SPAM" in
the subject moved to my other folders.

Any thoughts? I've searched Google and this site for an answer, but can't
find the answer. Thanks for the help! Tyson

You do not say, but do you have "stop processing more rules" selected on
your move to folder rules, if not add it and see how it goes?
