SOLVED Mail Rules

Rule to move inbox message to junk mailbox after 30 days does not work.
What am I doing wrong?
Rule:
If All conditions are met:
Every Message is greater than 30 days old:
Move Message to mailbox Junk.
OK

Hello,

I think it is because you have it set for Every Message, which means all messages in the Inbox. Maybe replace that with Date Received is more than 30 days old:

See if that works.

Thanks Cory,
Tried that, changed All Messages to Date Received in the Rule.
Shut down Mail and restarted the computer.
This Rule change did not work either.
Still have an overloaded inbox.
Next?

OK...

With that rule in place, did you try selecting all email in the Inbox then in the menu bar click Message > Apply Rules?
