[pmmail-list] Filter -> Canned Reply stopped working?

[Dean Boulding]

All,

I had a weird thing happen today, and am looking for any advice / feedback.

I have several computers and email accounts at work. One account serves no purpose 
except to handle irregular messages bounced from an autoreply email address -- the 
autoreply address (on an almost dedicated computer) automatically sends the 
requested document, via canned reply.  If it cannot understand it, it bounces the 
message to a second address.  So far so good.

On my personal computer, I review all the bounced messages.  I have set up a few 
manual filters to automatically feed canned replies with the appropriate attachments 
-- for example, although I specify in the public announcement that requesters should 
sent a message with the subject of "new labour law", it is not unusual to get a 
message with the subject "new labor law".  These I handle manually, by right-
clicking on the message then selecting the appropriate filter, which sends the 
appropriate canned reply.

These filters should work on any message; they filter based on "@" in the header.

They did work until today.  Today, when I right-click on a message, the message is 
tagged as I want it, moved to the appropriate filter, but no canned reply is sent.  
The canned reply still exists.  I have tried renaming all relevant files / filters, 
to no effect.

The sequence of operations in my filter is:
1.  Send canned reply "name"
2.  Set status "reply"
3.  Move message to folder "InfoSent"

Any ideas why this would suddenly stop working?

TIA,

Dean
