I think I can help here: it's connection based at least; maybe also timing
based? If Outlook "sees" a very slow/unreliable connection towards the IMAP
store for which it's supposed to execute the rule, it simply disables that
rule! Doh! :-s Typical scenario for me: connected to office via VPN at a
conference where a shared WiFi ends up in a 128Kbps line. The VPN just drops
from time to time but recovers; if during this one attempts to send Outlook
will most likely disable the rule for "Sent Items".

I'm also plagued by the "Outlook stall" problem, haven't found a way around
it yet; initially I've suspected it to be hardware but I see it happening on
various configs... Only common things: XP + SP2 and Outlook 2003.
