I have three email accounts and I would like to access them from outlook 2007 separately.
I have created 3 folders (folder1, folder2 and folder3) in the inbox folder and routed my messages to those folders by using the rules wizard.
The next stage I would like to apply same rules to the Delete folders and sent folders.
I have created 3 folders in the delete folder (folder1, folder2 and folder3) and 3 folders in the sent folder (folder1, folder2 and folder3).
I would like to do the following:-
1. Delete a message from account1 the deleted message will go to the delete folder1.
2. Send a message from account1 and the sent message will go to the sent folder1.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you


 
You can do the second of your choices: (2. Send a message from account1 and the sent message will go to the sent folder1.) using the rules wizard 'check messages after sending' option but you can't make the first choice happen. It's not possible to set a rule to direct deleted items to anywhere else, they will only go the the deleted items folder.
 
To add the above, if you really need this level of separation, you'd probably be better off creating seperate Outlook profiles.
 
Control Panel\Mail\Show Profiles\Add. Create as you see fit, then choose the option to prompt for a profile when starting Outlook.
