In Outlook Express, is it possible to route email sent from a profile to a separate SENT folder?

I set up a separate inbox and Message Rule to route my client's daughter's email to her own Inbox folder. Works fine, but when she sends email and selects her profile, is there a way to have the copy routed to her own SENT folder rather than to the common SENT folder?

Thanks,

Not automatically. You could create a rule to move messages sent by the daughter to her 'sent folder' but it would have to be run manually (Run now button) and it would need to be directed to run on the common sent folder. Someone would have to remember to manaully run this rule periodically.
 
Smah,

That's what I came up with, but I was hoping someone would know a way to automate it.

Hmmm, I wonder if using a different email client, such as Mozilla's Thunderbird, might work. Use Outlook Express for one person's email and Thunderbird for the other.

Thanks anyway,

S
 
If you want to keep them seperate, you could use OE's Identities. File, Identities, Add... Be sure to read the OE help file for info about OE's Identities function.
