Microsoft Exchange. I have been playing with it and when I define a
new rule it doesn't ask me whether it should be client or server side.
It used to in 2002/earlier versions. There does not seem to be any
options to force a rule to save to server.

I know why it does not work, it's because the features I am using make
the rule client side only.

The above says 'froward the messages to a public folder' ro overcome
it but there is no option available from the rules wizard (just
forward to people or distribution lists). How do you forward a message
to a public folder?
