Automatically Forward Email in Microsoft Outlook

Since forwarding could be based on multiple criteria, we will need to create Rules. It is a feature in Outlook which allows you to perform an action based on specific criteria. Here, our criteria here is to forward emails. You can use rules for almost anything, including deleted emails, moving them into a folder and so on.

You can also choose to Run the rule right away to apply on your inbox. If you gave multiple accounts in Outlook, then you can choose to apply the rule for every account. I hope the steps were clear, and you were able to set up email forwarding in Outlook 2019/16. It also works with Office 365. Related read: How to setup vacation reply in Outlook.
