This is usually done on the server. One of the advantages of running my own
mail server is that I can write such rules easily using Sieve.
I'm not familiar with the details, but my understanding is that some large
email service providers such as Microsoft and Google allow you to create rules
that will be run on incoming messages. I think it's a case of choosing the
right service provider for email, or building your own if you have Linux
expertise.

I’ve broached this subject before. I’m still having no luck in creating a
mail rule to automatically forward a message that arrives in my inbox each
morning. I have no problems creating rules, and have several that move messages
to various folders.
For the auto forward, I have no problem setting up the criteria, but in the
action section is where I think the problem lies. I select the pop-up for
forward and then type in the recipient’s email (which is correctly typed). Then
like any other rule I select OK and then Apply.
But the rule never works, even after editing or completely removing and
re-building. This message does have an attachment, which I want to have
forwarded, but there seems to be no provision for anticipating this in my
choice of actions.
Has anyone else been able to construct a rule to do an auto forward?
