Any mail rules for Mail do not work. Blocked mail is still in the junk folder, other rules are ignored. I have removed all "stop evaluating rules" items, turned off Junk Mail filtering, and still the blocked emails arrive in my junk folder.
What gives?

Have you reset the junk mail rules?
Have you gone in depth in the junk settings to see if there are any exclusions?
Do you have an email provider that might have its own junk mail settings on the server side?
Are you applying the rules manually using the Message menu, after selecting a group of messages?
Thanks, Yes, Yes, Don't know
Applying the rules manually takes more effort than just deleting the junk.
I have checked for "stop processing" and have deleted any I found.
The real annoyance here is that blocked mails (supposed to be trashed) still turn up in Junk, marked as blocked.
I have also turned off Junk Filtering, in hopes that the messages would go into Inbox and be subjected to the rules from there, but the blocked emails still turn up in Junk.
I will keep trying, Thanks for your suggestions.
The best I've ever gotten was to get maybe 95% of junk Mail to do as specified in Rules. Those that get through I delete manually.
