Outlook 2013 forwarding rule (mapi account) works intermittently?

Hi,

I've created a rule to forward inbound mapi email to another mapi account. The rule basically looks like this:

Apply this rule after the message arrives through the <mapi account_1> account and on this computer only forward it to <mapi account_2>.

Outlook is configured to send/receive every 15 minutes. The problem I'm having is the rule works for a while and then just stops. If I look at all my new email, some indicate "You forwarded this message on..." and others don't. When I test the rule manually it always seems to work (I send an email from my phone and then click Send/Receive in Outlook - the test email is downloaded and then forwarded as expected).

I have other rules for folder sorting that run after the forwarding rule and they all work fine. Is it possible that there is a timing issue where by one of the sorting rules moves the email before it has a chance to be forwarded? I assumed that Outlook would run the rules sequentially. I'm totally stumped here.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
