Hi Chuck,

I have lots of nested rules that work fine. When I enter yours as 
described the
    All of the following conditions are true
    Date Received within last 7 days
Is not indented when entered (using the elipses)

I think the rules need to written like this

**Any** of the following are true
    **From** **is** user1 at example.com
    **All** of the following are true
        **Date Received** **Is 
within last** 7 **Days**
        **From** **is** 
user2 at example.com

in other words I believe the ALL or ANY condition must precede what you 
want it to apply to.
That's the way I always write mine and have no issues.

_(Disclaimer: I may be wrong)_
