I'm really getting tired of still not having a simple MOVE action for sent
emails. This must have been a much requested feature for ages...
Yeah yeah, I know there are some workarounds available, but still they lack
the core functionality of a move action, and they are way to complex to setup.
Most MVP's here will tell you to 1. turn off the global option to save sent
messages to Sent items, 2. create a catch all rule with no condition to get
messages still in your Sent items folder, 3. for other folders, create an
appropriate rule to move a copy of the item and make sure that it includes
the 5. Stop Processing action and that it 6. appears above the catch-all rule.
That's 6 steps to follow for the closest workaround available.
This 'workaround' does still come with two things I don't like at all:
1. Messages are being copied to the Sent Items folder before they are even
sent out, and still waiting in the Outbox.
2. Copied Sent Items get a "not read yet" status. What's the point of that?
I've wrote it, so I've read it
So, what does it take to get the real MOVE action for sent emails into
Outlook 2007? Bring it on, right now! Why does it take so long, or what's
the main reason behind it, other than the lack of finding the time to program
it? Or do MS Outlook programmers only receive tons of emails, and they do not
send out emails?
This missing feature costs me countless hours every week to get my outgoing
mails organized, just the way I like to organize my incoming mails. There are
people (like me) who sent out more emails then they receive them (I'm a
project manager, dealing with hundreds of developers, who get updated by
email).
