Rule to mark emails copied to IMAP sent-items as "read"

[Jerry Kidd]

Hi, I am using Outlook 2003 on XP SP2, and everything works
great except for one small annoyance. I am using IMAP and
have a rule that automatically puts a copy of every email I
send into my IMAP "sent-items" folder. However, Outlook
copies these emails as unread. Is there any way to make a
rule that only applies to one IMAP folder (mark all as read
only on the sent-items folder)? I basically want to mark
every email sent to copied to the sent-items folder as
read. Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Jerry
