You were too literal here.  "$IH" and "$IHV" are meant to be
"variables".
Using the information you gave below, $IH should have been:

"X-Chemistry_Department-MailScanner-Information"

and $IHV should have been:

" Please contact the Chemistry Helpdesk for more information"



Try setting that Rule condition to:

"Header Field" is not "X-Chemistry_Department-MailScanner-Information:
Please contact the Chemistry Helpdesk for more information"

And then things should work.
