Good Day,

I have lots of contacts with local Categories assigned.  Up until update 14.4.5 when I received email from one of them the mail was automatically categorized and would change color.  Now it categorizes and a moment later the category is removed.

I am connected to an Exchange server (although that should not matter).

I have no Rules configured.

I have removed Outlook preference files (~Preferences and ~Application Data).  I have rebuilt the Outlook database.  All to no avail.

If I remove the "Assign categories to..." and create a rule to set the category and  the behavior is identical. 

If I run the Rule manually the category sticks.

Any thoughts?

Thank you.
