I know how to create message rules, but in a different way.  But I wanted to 
try these instructions.  And, unless something is wrong with my computer, 
hitting alt A does absolutely nothing.  No matter if you are in a message or 
not.  Alt A doesn't do anything.
While in the inbox, I hit alt T, then R for creat rules.  Jack
