[MlMt] best practices for diagnosing rules that aren't working..

[Rick Flower]

Hi Henry, John..

I’m actually running v1.14 v5937.. I just moved up to 6059 at your mention of it working fairly well.

The rules window looks a lot nicer to navigate vs v5937.. Some of my issues disappeared too. I am able to get a lot of my rules behaving by switching from “From->address” to “From->name” and they’re triggering now. So I think I’m good for the time being. Thank you both!

-Rick
