Better put a hold on any excitement I have generated. It's not working. AND
I think I figured why I thought it was - The addresses I used are
re-directed to our gmail accounts


Apologies all

G'day All

This topic was raised some months ago, and I couldn't see a final answer.
In fact looking for an answer lead me to the group.

I wanted it so that I can see what I have sent for work from home, in my
work email client.

I have tested this from my wife's gmail account and my own, to our
non-gmail addresses. It seems to work, albeit it seems slow to arrive at
the bcc address. I use a third gmail account as a back-up - a comfort in
case something should happen to our normal email accounts.

So here's what I did:

I hadn't sent any forwarding for my wife's account, so set that up to
start. That process asked me to confirm the forwarding address by getting
the security code from the addressee mail box.


Turn OFF any present forwarding of incoming mail - it can be turned on
later.

Set up a filter for mail FROM me.

Go to the 'forwarding' tab in settings. See that the forwarding address is
in use by a filter.

Confirm that forwarding from the filter worked by send myself a note.

When happy it is working, turn back on forwarding all incoming mail - but
this must be the same address.  This would be ideal for the person who
wants 'everybody' to see that the responsible person has attended to mail,
and the person's replies. Just set the central account to then forward all
incoming mail to a group.


Good luck
