Save in original item folder

Hi
In outlook there is a feature that saves the email you send to the folder
where you replied from (i.e. if the original email was in 'shopping' folder
and I replied - the sent item is saved there)... Where is this feature in
entourage 08? I found only save sent items (which I assume is no save when
unchecked).

Thanks
Ml

If the reply messages you wish to file are governed by the Mailing List
Manager, there is an option to "Also move messages I send to the list to
this folder", which works well if you've designated a folder to move the
messages to.

If the reply messages are not to lists, then create an Outgoing rule.

Tools->Rules->Outgoing tab:

*If any criteria are met

IF Any to recipient contains (enter address or name)

THEN Move Message (select folder)

I just saw this reply (sorry) -- this rule would only work on 1 specific
folder would it not? As opposed to automatically choosing the folder where
the message original was located.

If you have linking selected, you can always select "show reply."

Save a sent message in a different folder
