Automatic reply not working

I am trying to get the automatic reply function to work under rules. However the reply just does not seem to work. No message is sent. I have been trying to get the rules to automatically reply if it see's an email to a particular email address but this just does not happen. I have tried deleting the message rules plist and that has not helped either.

Any ideas ?

Macbook Pro, Mac OS X (10.4.8)

As usual, David, you are correct. I presumed it would act the same as when I send a message, either manually or via Applescript, while offline - put it in the outbox, and for the first one of a stream, show an error message.

Yes, the rule is working manually and automatically for both sending and forwarding. I must now try to remember (or maybe just run a new test) whether I was on or offline when I tried the forwarding in Applescript.
