Can't forward emails using rules in Mail.app

None of my Mail.app rules seem to be working to forward any emails even though they are working normally for other things: moving into folders, marking as read, etc. I'm using macOS Big Sur Version 11.6.2. Here's an example of a simple test rule that isn't working: enter image description here When I receive a test email with that wording in the subject, nothing seems to happen. The email lands in my inbox but I don't see anything that indicates anything was forwarded, in the sent folder or otherwise. This seems to be the same behavior as found on this unresolved Apple discussions thread . Here's what I've tried to resolve this so far: 1. Varied **any** and **all** in the if statement. 1. Used **Redirect Message** instead of **Forward Message**. 1. Added in an **Every message** condition. 1. Made sure there there were no **Stop evaluating rules** actions before this rule (by making it the first rule). None of the above works. How to get it working?
