Hi everyone,

I want to forward all email from my company's email that contains some specific key words to my colleague's email. How can I fill the trigger part and do it?

Thank you so much!

    Hi @Chihiro ,

    Agree with michev that it's recommended to set up an Outlook rule for your requirement. Basic steps are as follows:

    1. Go to File > Home > Rules > Manage Rules & Alerts...
    2. Click New Rule, choose "Apply rule on messages I receive", select "with specific words in the subject or body"(or you can choose other conditions that best fit your need), specify the key words, click Next:

    3. Choose "Forward it to people or public folder", input your colleague's email address, click Next

    4. Click Next, Next, Finish.
    5. If you would like to forward messages that are already in your Inbox, you can click "Run Rules Now", choose the rule, click Browse to select the folder, like Inbox, click "Run Now":

    Use Outlook rules for that: Apply rule on messages I receive > with specific words in the subject (or body) > forward it to people...
