Default Directing Sent Messages to folders

I am aware that incoming messages can be directed to specific folders using
the 'create a rule' method. However, can messages that are sent to a specific
address be directed to specific folders rather than going to the default
'sent' folder?

Yes. There's a "move a copy to the specified folder" action for outgoing
messages.

Thank you Brian. Can you tell me where that option is as I can not find it
under the 'create a rule' options. I am using Outlook 2003. I appreciated
your respose.

ToolsRules and AlertsNew RuleStart from a blank ruleCheck messages after
sendingNext. Select your condition and configure it. Click Next. The
second action in the list that appears should be "move a copy to the
specified folder", but even if it's not the second, it will be there.

Another way is: before you send the message, click Options, Under Delivery
Options you can choose where the copy of the sent message goes (instead of
the sent items folder).
