This happened to me a while back. The only way I could "fix" it was to close Outlook, discarding all my changes. I then made the same changes but saved the rules after every tiny change. Somehow the changes all saved and I moved on.

I wonder if the state somehow becomes corrupted and Outlook has no idea what to do, hence the error.

Under jasode's thread, you can see that people are missing Paul's point. He's not saying that working with close proximity is the "best" way of working. Yet most people here are debating which type of work is. Each company, market, vertical, team, etc. will vary in manifold ways.

What I believe Paul is asking for is that companies have the option to choose. Right now the option is available to anyone to hire remotely in one way or another. This is not the case with physically hiring into the country. Almost every startup I've worked at has had issues trying to hire exceptional people from another country. In almost every case, we lost those hires to the system and were forced to start the search again.

If a small, remote, international startup grows fast enough and they decide that working together under one roof in the U.S. fits their new needs, they should have the freedom and choice to do so.

Instead of using the z script, why not just use cd and $CDPATH, which are built in? I have mine set to this:

export CDPATH=.:$HOME:$HOME/workspace:$HOME/gocode/src/github.com/geetarista

You can set it to whatever you want, then just use `cd` and not worry about using some other script.
