Apply rule when logged off

[Sri via OfficeKB.com]

Hello all,

Is there a way I can apply a rule when I am logged off form my outlook.

I have to roam around 3, 4 buildings very randomly as my job demands it. Only
one building has access to my Outlook account.

I have to set a rule such that all my mails after I logged off from my
outlook should be forwarded to my personal account so that I can see them
from other buildings also. I have been trying with a rule that forwards all
my mails to my personal account but I need to activate this rule only when I
am logged off from my outlook.

Is this possible ???

Thanks in advance
Sri

A program can perform no action when it is not running in memory.

Use a server-side forward or pull feature. Check if your mail server
can push your e-mails out to another account using an option or a
server-side rule. Or check if your personal account can yank (pull)
e-mails from other POP accounts.

Without details is is hard to give any detailed instructions as well.
Include at least your version of Outlook, the mail account type that you
want to apply the rule on and the mail account type of which you have to at
the other buildings.

Additionally, you might want to verify if your company policies allow you to
receive business emails on your private account.

Some e-mail providers include a forwarding option (to push your e-mails
out to somewhere else). When enabled, your e-mails are forwarded to
another account. Sometimes there is a suboption as to whether the
e-mail is forwarded (and the local copy deleted) or the e-mail is
forwarded and you get to still keep a copy in the original account.
Sometimes the forwarding feature is listed as its own separate function
and where you specify the other account to which you want your e-mails
forwarded. Sometimes they provide the forwarding function as the action
of a server-side rule (i.e., a rule you define in your account by using
their webmail agent to access your account, its settings, and its
rules).

Some e-mail providers include a mail poll function. They let you define
other POP accounts from which they can yank (pull) those e-mails. Their
service simply acts like an e-mail client to poll the other POP
accounts. But that means you have to give the e-mail provider the login
credentials for those other accounts so it can go poll them.

So an e-mail account may let you push or pull e-mails to or from other
accounts.

I cannot get more specific considering that you left it vague as to who
are actually your e-mail providers. But then you can dig around the
options and configuration of your own e-mail account easier than I can
determine if such features exist by reading their web help pages.
