Default Rules apply to added Mailboxes?

I have an added mailbox to my outlook setup. I created a rule to forward
from the added mailbox to another email address, and the rule does not seem
to execute. I tried a similar rule on my primary mailbox, and it worked
fine. Is there a reason why rules would not work on added mailboxes? Thank
you

YOu must create such a rule while logged in to a mail profile that opens that other mailbox as the priimary mailbox.

Thank you. Now, if I do that - log into the other mailbox, create a rule,
but then go back and log as the other email (my original primary mailbox),
will the rule continue to execute. OR can rules only execute on your
primary/logged in mailbox.

It depends on the conditions and actions you set for the rule and should be easy enough for you to test.

A forward action can always run on the server.
