Outlook (new): How to create a rule to auto-forward emails

Anonymous

I recently upgraded to the new Outlook desktop app for Windows. Microsoft Outlook Version 1.2023.1004.400 (Production). Client Version is 20231006004.14.

In the old Outlook 365 I could set up a rule to automatically forward emails based on sender, subject, etc. I don't see how to do this in the new Outlook.

Any suggestions on how this can be accomplished?

Thanks in advance.

    Hi, I am also having trouble with accessing the Rule menu in the new Outlook. I believe I have set up a rule previously in the New Outlook, but have recently connected an external O365 account and now the Rule menu has gone missing. The old rule seems to be working, I just can't find it or create a new rule. Thanks in advance.

    Same here, I'm using Google workspace, i tried to find the rules option from the new Outlook app, but couldn't find. Finally, I had to give up and came back to the classic version.

    Why MS doesn't explain the users clearly about this? It was wasting time to search and then realized it doesn't support non MS account, but from another user's post, not from MS supporters.

    On the web version of New Outlook, there are additional options available such as rules and a few more.

    However, in the desktop version of New Outlook, these options are missing.

    because our company is using Google workspace, I didn't have other choice to go back to classic outlook.
