SYMPTOMS
========

If you use the MIMEsweeper for Exchange Server, the Inbox Assistant and Out of
Office Assistant rules may no longer work. The New Mail Notification dialog box
may also stop responding.

CAUSE
=====

MIMEsweeper intercepts incoming mail before it reaches your Inbox. A side effect
of this is that any rules defined for new mail in the Inbox Assistant or Out of
Office Assistant are not executed.
