Hi Emilly,

Don't use Gmail myself, but if it is a normal emailaddress you can use the rules wizard to setup a rule to autoforward a message (you decide criteria) to that Gmail account.

Enjoy!

Thanks for your reply

But I cannot find BCC in the rule

Thanks for your reply

But I cannot find BCC in the rule

Hi Emily,

So sorry that's because it is not posible in a Rule! I've read over the BCC part...so sorry!

I think we can make this work in a macro that you can use in a rule for incomming mail.

Should the macro only fire if a paricular person has send the email. (comming from a particular person that is)

Please advice on which type of email autoforwarding should apply..(little time left today but I'll set it up tommorow)

Gmail is large enough to hold all email.

Hi,

Don't know what you mean by this in relation to my reply?

Sorry, I want to forward all incoming email to Gmail account.

Can the VBA store in server side? (User need not to logon)

Hi,

I don't understand your second question about server side script!

Try this first.
Set up a new rule for all incoming email
in step two choose run script and attach this script:[VBA]
Sub AutoForwardIt(oItem As Outlook.MailItem)
Dim oNewItem As Outlook.MailItem

Set oNewItem = oItem.Forward

With oNewItem
.To = "To@vbax.com"
.BCC = "BCC@vbax.com"
.Send
End With

Set oNewItem = Nothing
End Sub
[/VBA]

Enjoy!

I had saved the code in the VBA probject and add rule in client side.

But I cannot find any test email forward to my specified account both CC and Bcc. I tried to run the rule and found nothing in send folder too.

Please help

Hi,

This will be hard for me because my version of Office is in Dutch so translations may differ!

Ok First create a module in Outlook and add the above code!
Make sure you fill in To and BCC with a Valid address!

Close the VBE and Close Outlook Choose yes to save the OTM file!

Open Outlook and go to Tools/Rules
* Choose New Rule
* Start with empty rule (Type check mail on arival)
* Step 1 do nothing choose next press yes at the msg that the rule will be followed for all incoming mail
* Step 2 Check Run script
* Below press Run script and choose the sub AutoForwardIt
* Choose Next
* Step 3 do nothing
* Choose Next
* Name your rule and press Apply
* Done

* Send test email to yourself and see if your rule is run when you are getting your mail back

Good luck!

Tested fine now with security set to medium

Thanks

Hi Emily,
You're Welcome!

And yes setting macro security to medium is the minimum you have to do in Office to get macro's to run. (I do forget to mention that a lot of times)
