Apply rule only on specific folder

[Padu]

Outlook has numerous option for rules but apparently not to work on items in
a specific folder. My need is to forward some items from the Inbox to a
different email address when working with the WebAccess interface (Microsoft
Exchange). The easiest solution seemed to select the items and drag them to a
specified folder ON WHICH one apply a general forwarding rule.
When setting the rule it can be applied one time to the specific folder but
from there on works directly on the Inbox, with result of getting all mails
forwarded.
Thanks

You can't assign a rule to a folder. You can Run the rule later on the
specific folder.
