R

i have tried to create a rule to automatically forward all incoming email to
my home computer. i used the wizard for this and entered the following rule
description:

where my name is in the To box
and where my name is in the CC box
and where my name is in the To or CC box
and through the pop account
and on this machine only
forward to (e-mail address removed)

it doesn't work. i had a previous version of outlook and lost it to a
major virus. now i have outlook 2003 that our resident fixer installed and i
can't seem to get the rule to do what i want it to do. any suggestions
appreciated.

How many emails do you get where your name is in the To AND the CC box?
Those are the emails this rule will forward.

Of course not. Your rule says your address MUST BE in BOTH To AND CC in
order to forward. Don't specify any conditions at all. Just click Next on
the condition screen without checking any conditions.
