How to automatically forward Email in Outlook?
When you go on vacation, a smarter trick is to not be able to access your work email. In this way, you will not feel pressure from thinking about many work-related matters.
The workaround is to set up email forwarding in Microsoft Outlook. By configuring auto-forwarding, you can be at ease knowing that all mails sent to your work email account will be automatically forwarded to another email address.
STEPS:
- Go to File.
- Select Rules and Alerts.
- In the pop-up window, select the Email Rules tab and make New Rule.
- Then a Rules Wizard will appear.
The first step is to select a template. So go to the Start from a blank rule section and select Apply rule on messages I receive.
Under, make sure the rule description says Apply this rule after the message arrives and hit Next.
- Then you will be prompted to select the conditions for the messages that get forwarded. As to the specific conditions you select, it’s totally up to you.
But if you want all of your messages to be diverted to another email address, you should leave every condition unchecked.
Under, make sure the field also says Apply this rule after the message arrives. Then hit Next.
- This will open a Rule Address window. Here, you can access an address book that you can easily select an email address as the receiving of the auto-forwarded emails.
You can also type the email address in the To section. Once you specified an email address, hit Okay.
