Default Few questions about VBA in outlook -difficult.

Yes, anybody can make server side rules if you are using an Exchange mailbox;
no special permissions are required. They are called that because they can
be processed when your Outlook is closed; those that need your Outlook to be
open are client side. Outlook will usually tell you when you have finished
creating the rule what kind it is - I believe it warns you if it's client
side.

And yes, I'm pretty sure if you forward an e-mail to a Distribution List
that also contains your address you will get yet another copy. This may
actually create a circular loop I'm thinking; make sure you enable the rule
that says "If sent directly to me".

1) Create or open the Outlook profile that has a single account for your
bureau mailbox. Create a server-side Rule that forwards alll e-mails to your
other e-mail address. This way you don't have to write any code at all.

Thanks.
Stupid question I guess, but can I make server side rules? And, if so, how?
I'm only a normal user, not some kind of administrator...

When all those mails are forwarded, the mails which are sent to all
mauilusers will be twice in my mailbox. Correct?
