    The UpdateInboxRules operation updates the authenticated user's Inbox rules by applying the specified operations.
    UpdateInboxRules is used to create an Inbox rule, to set an Inbox rule, or to delete an Inbox rule.

    When you use the UpdateInboxRules operation, Exchange Web Services deletes client-side send rules.
    Client-side send rules are stored on the client in the rule Folder Associated Information (FAI) Message and nowhere
    else. EWS deletes this rule FAI message by default, based on the expectation that Outlook will recreate it.
    However, Outlook can't recreate rules that don't also exist as an extended rule, and client-side send rules don't
    exist as extended rules. As a result, these rules are lost. We suggest you consider this when designing your
    solution.
