Re: Mail Rule for Auto-Forwarding

['Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries]

The server would be the preferred place for filtering mail, as Jason
suggests, because the filtered mail is then similarly available on
whatever device you happen to access your mail from at any given moment.

So, build the rules once, and access the results anywhere and
everywhere.

Best,

Janina

Re: Mail Rule for Auto-Forwarding

['Jason White' via MacVisionaries]

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.

Re: Mail Rule for Auto-Forwarding

[Brad Snyder]

If the rule has been created, you can apply it to items already in your Inbox 
as follows:
1.  Highlight the mail item or items.
2.  Use VO + SHIFT + M to open the Shortcut menu.
3.  Press the up arrow once to Apply Rule, and press enter, and the rule should 
be applied.

Yes but rules work on incoming messages,

Not messages that have already arrived.

Highlight the ones you wish to forward and then use the forwarding option to 
send them on to where you want them to go.

Subject: Mail Rule for Auto-Forwarding

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?

Jonathan,
So you are saying that you could help with a script to move the attachment, but 
not the email itself? Or is that not necessarily a distinction?

Re: Mail Rule for Auto-Forwarding

[Jonathan Cohn]

I’m sure that I could create or help you create an AppleScript to send that 
attachment  through using a AppleScript based rule. I haven’t done anything 
like that but I know what all the code points would be.

Re: Mail Rule for Auto-Forwarding

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

Probably.  I've just always known that.  You can test this by sending an eMail 
from one account to another and setting up your rule to watch for messages from 
that one account.  There's probably a rational, logical, reason explained 
somewhere in Google-land, but I've never bothered to make the effort to search 
for it yet.

Later...

Yes, they are in the inbox. How on earth would I manage to intercept them 
before they get there? Isn’t the presence of the “forward” action suggesting 
that there should not be some limitations to using it?

Re: Mail Rule for Auto-Forwarding

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Dave,

Has the message you wish to auto-forward already arrived in your InBox?  If 
yes, then that's likely the problem.  I believe that this action will not act 
on items that currently reside in your message list.  It will only act on 
incoming messages.

Has anyone else been able to construct a rule to do an auto forward?
