For many rules, it won't matter how you've listed them but for some, execution
order is crucial and moving one rule to a different position in relation to
another can alter what the rules do.

The MVP Summit is being held in Seattle right now and one MVP is bringing a
list of requests for things to implement in Outlook 2010. On that list is a
rules editor. Perhaps it will eventually make it into Outlook.
