Rule to distribute sent mail
I have 3 mail accounts and I want one (or more) rules like this:
Apply the rule after I send the message Through the _specified_ account Move it to the _specified_ folder and mark it as read The problem is that the only option I see, in the Rules wizard, is "move a copy". Furthermore, when I use that option, just to test the rule, the message that was copied to the _specified_ folder looks unread. That's why in my rule I want to add the option "and mark it as read". Any ideas? (Vista Home Premium - Office 2007 Pro) -- Please remove hyphens to contact me ----- --- -- -- - geotso ----- --- -- -- -

Correct. That's all there is. If you disable the "Save copies of messages in Sent Items folder", then the "move a copy" action will result in a real move. Furthermore, when I use that option, just to test the rule, the message that was copied to the _specified_ folder looks unread. That's why in my rule I want to add the option "and mark it as read". That action simply doesn't exist for outgoing messages. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

Rule to distribute sent mail
I have exactly the same issue as geotso. Why oh why does Microsoft insist on
providing such a restrictive subset of rules? Wouldn't it have made more sense to provide a "Mark as Read" options for both incoming and outgoing emails.
