Hello,

OmniFocus is really a great program! That's why I think it's a shame I can't get mail rules to work. I have only planned to use 'a subject starting with'.

I have read other threads about the subject but still can't get it to work.

What I have done is to:
* Check the box in preferences to use e-mail rules
* Check to use the subject starting with -- ( I haven't done any changes to it)
* Check the 'archive processed message in inbox'
* Typed in my address that I send out emails with

I thought about using mail rules to 'waiting for' (GTD). So when I emailed a person that he should do something and then get it automatically in the OF as a reminder to myself. So I write an email I send from my email address (found in preferences in OmniFocus) in the 'Subject' in Mac Mail, I write '-- buy milk' in cc I write my own email address as I set up to also receive the mail in my 'waiting for' folder in Mac Mail. Then I send it away but nothing happens in OmniFocus ....

I get the clipping to work with Mac Mail and everything else also works very well with OmniFocus even sync with iCal. It's just that I can't get this to work. Please help!
