If I originally did the "take ownership", do I have to do it again if just replacing the x64 file?
It's been a while since I did this on my folks system and it's a bit of a drive going up there!
thx

In four cases I've personally dealt with, it was necessary to Take Onwership again. I suspect this is because once the imported Vista msoe.dll file is amended by the KB update, it then becomes a protected Windows file.
On one HP laptop I did for a friend, after a clean installation of 64bit Windows 7, the "Take Ownership" regedit wouldn't work. Neither did the "Run command" in Step 2 to remove attributes and make the WinMail.exe file visible. Consequently it was necessary to use:
1. Footnote 1 of the tutorial to take full control manually of the msoe.dll file.
2. Footnote 4 of the tutorial to make WinMail.exe visible manually.
These two problems seem fairly common in laptops, and HP ones in particular.
Also, the updated msoe.dll file was loaded first, and then the Microsoft update downloaded. Unfortunately this borked the msoe.dll file and it was necessary to reload the updated msoe.dll file again.
Therefore, on a new installation, always get the Microsoft updates first, then do the tutorial steps.

Hmmm, now let me see....
Tools/Message Rules/Mail
Section 1: Check "Where the from line contains people"
Section 3: Click "Contains People"
Click Contacts - your contact list comes up. Highlight the first one and then holding down the Shift key scroll down using your down arrow to highlight them all.
Add them to the right column by clicking the "From" button.
Click OK
(You may get an error if you have contacts without an email address as it will only add ones with one. That's OK)
Now click the "Options" button.
In section 1: Click the 2nd option: "Message does NOT contain the people below"
Click OK and OK again and you should now be back to original message rule window.
Section 2: Select "Move it to the specified folder"
Section 3: Scroll down to and click on "specified"
In the ensuing window expand the tree & select Junk E-Mail.
Click OK
In the ensuing windows click "Apply Now"
Highlight the rule above and click "Apply Now" at the bottom.
It should say the the rules have been applied. Click OK and you are done.
Hope that works for you!! Mail rules can be fickle as they aren't the easiest things to set up. I used to use them a lot to filter spammers out of the Microsoft Newsgroups in OE and WM.
