Hi, I have a number of rules set up. One, in particular, forwards an email
to my mobile phone if that email comes from my work. Importantly, what I
would like to know is whether my pc must be on for this to happen, or whether
it should work as soon as it hits the server of my ISP. I did not check the
"on this machine only" box. The rule is working fine, but it is really
important that I don't miss the mobile alert. Many thanks for your
assistance.

Rules you create in Outlook on your machine ONLY work when your machine is
on and Outlook running. If your ISP has webmail, then you may be able to
create this type of rule while logged into webmail...
