How to have rule send notification to main inbox when msg appears in generic mailbox?
I'm on Windows XPSP1, with Outlook 2002SP3. I use lots of rules for
filing notes in folders based on values in headers. I also have access to a Generic Mailbox that I need to check occassionally. I'd really like to just be notified when a note appears in the Generic Mailbox, perhaps by sending me a notification to my main inbox. I tried creating a rules wizard entry indicating "sent to my GM notify me using 'my notification message'". Outlook lets me create this with no complaint, but when I test this by manually sending a message to the GM, I don't get a notification message in my main inbox. Is there some way I can make this happen?

I was able to get this to work. It required creating a mail profile in
Control Panel for my GM, and setting it to allow me to choose which profile to use when I start Outlook. I then start Outlook and choose the GM profile. In there, I create a simple rule for notes sent to the GM to forward (or form a simple message) to me. I can then exit Outlook, set Mail profiles back to "always use this profile" to the default profile, and now messages sent to the GM will be forwarded to me.
