    Why don't the message rules work on my Windows Live Mail


    I have WLM 2011 on my desktop running Vista and the message rules (I use the color coding) work beautifully.

    I have it on my laptop running Windows 7 and shen I click to apply, it states that rules have been applied, but it won't color code. Should I have WLM 2012 instead of 2011, or isn't it going to make any difference?

    Doesn't anyone have an answer to this, and/or a remedy?
