Outlook Rules in Error

I use Outlook 2002 with Exchange server, but also pick up email from my personal POP3 account.

I have a rule set up which moves all email recieved from my personal account into the inbox of a Personal Folders pst.

However, recently Outlook has started to inform me that this rule is in error. It then turns the rule off.

Is this because there is more than one folder called Inbox open in Outlook at the same time, or is it something to do with rule order.

Also, is there any way of moving (not putting a copy) of mail I send through my personal POP3 account into the Personal Sent Items? I don't want copies everywhere... --

I have my Outlook set up to do exactly that - I set my POP3 mail account to deliver all incoming mail into my Exchange server mailbox - I cannot remember the exact setting - but I will check later when I return home - I have this working with both XP and Outlook 2002 and W2K and Outlook 2000.
 
I don't like to keep my personal mails in my Exchange mail box which is why I have them moved into the inbox of a pst file.

Any ideas on the sent rules? It looks like Microsoft think you should have a copy of everything you send in your sent items... --
