Move "sent" mail from a specific person to a specific folder

[Kevinw]

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel Email Client: Exchange I have rules setup to move certain emails I receive from certain people/companies to a specific folder. In Outlook there was an option to keep the dialog from a particular email in the same folder so when I replied it was also in that folder. Somehow I'd like to be able to do this in Entourage but I can't figure out a way to move replied email sent to (e.g. Joe Smith) to Joe Smiths file after I send it. Other then manually doing it and the obvious toolbar option "after sending move to" option. Apple Script?

When you create your rule in Entourage from Tools - Rules, you'll need to actually click and _hold_ the "New" button down to get a list of rule options. Select "Outgoing", and then set up your rule. Outgoing rules apply to emails upon sending them. Let us know how it worked.

Thanks Jeff, anyway to make these rules run on existing already sent messages?

Also in case you know the answer to this, I have also not been able to find a way to write a rule that when a new mail comes in it will:
1. Leaves unread email from person A in mailbox
2. Copies same mail from person A to a specific folder
3. Marks same copied email as unread

I've written a rule that follows these sequences but it actually copies the email twice into the mail folder for some reason (step 2)?
