Default Auto copy any Email to an outside email server

Thanks once again for the quick responses.

OK... I added a second email account to Outlook 2002. When I set up a rule
from scratch that works on messages after they are sent, through a specified
account, I now get a dropdown box with two choices for accounts. They read:

mail.xxxxx.net
and
mail.xxxxx.net(1)

I'm not sure which is which, or if there is a way to edit/rename them to
associate them with the username of the email accounts. Is the first one,
without the number, the first account, or does Outlook label whichever is the
default account the one without a number. If I know the number/name scheme I
can make it work. After adding the last three email accounts I suppose I will
end up with five accounts, one without a number next to it and four with from
which to choose from when setting a rule from a "specific account".

"with specific words in the recipient's address" to my thinking would not
work. Again, I want only emails with a FROM of one of five accounts cc'd to
an outside email address, regardless of who is the receipient.

Cheers,

making a rule from scratch that comes close, but doesn't do the
trick, is "through the specified account". The problem is that all
five of the email addresses I use are part of the same account (same
email server).


Being on the same server doesn't imply the same account unless the five
addresses are aliases of one another. Even if they are, you can use the
"with specific words in the recipient's address" condition to sort between
them.
