Taking a look at Outlook 2007:
I can create a rule that forwards a message to someone else
automatically with my IMAP/SMTP setup. When I do so, the message
is automatically forwarded, but it is clearly marked as a
forward (FW: in front, etc).

So I guess a clean redirect like you are looking for doesn't
exist in 2007.

From Webopedia: "(1) In e-mail, a redirect is an option found
in e- mail clients that is similar to a forward, with the
exception that the body of the text is not normally shown as
quoted text. Additionally the From (or) Sender field will show
the e-mail address of the original sender, and in brackets it
will show your information."

From Microsoft’s web page concerning “automatically forwarding
emails to another email account”
(http://office.microsoft.com/en-
us/assistance/HA011502011033.aspx): "* Message
redirection**When a rule automatically redirects a message you
receive, it also leaves a copy in your Inbox or in the folder
to which the message was originally delivered. The rule then
sends the message, unchanged, to the account specified by the
rule. To the recipient, the message appears as though it came
directly from the original sender. There is no indication that
the message was delivered by way of your account."

My customer wants to filter his emails using Outlook 2003, then
automatically redirect them to his Blackberry. If you don't
have an Exchange Server (he doesn't), you don't have that
option.

This option is readily available on other email clients
(Eudora, Thunderbird), but my customer likes Outlook. My
question was whether Outlook 2007 has added (fixed?) this
option in response to requests. Judging by all the addins for
sale, there is a need.

Fixed? It doesn't sound broken.

What do you mean by 'redirect'?

Presently you can't redirect mail using rules in Outlook
2003 without an Exchange Server. Is this fixed with 2007?
