I have the following rule as #1:
 

Where the To line does not contain '@'

Delete it from the Server

and Stop processing more rules

It seems to delete at least some messages which actually have me as an addressee.  I thought I had copied this rule verbatim from http://www.mindspring.com/~majik/messagerules.htm as recommended by someone here.

What did I do wrong?

For starters, you cannot check Delete it from server *and* Stop processing
more rules. If you choose Delete it from server, all other actions are
grayed out. So you will have to double check what you actually have and get
back to us.

Any other message rule ahead of it in the list?

Hit send before I was finished...

Did you put '@' or just @
