Rules stopped working in Mail when upgraded to Monterey

hi all,


I have been successfully using a number of rules set up in Mail but they have all recently stopped working.


I've tried setting up new ones as test rules but they don't work either.


I think it started when I upgraded to Monterey


Can anyone help please?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.4
