Storing Email when sending and flagging for followup

[John Venables]

Hi, I send an email to a particular email address on a semi regular basis,
which I then have to chase up at a later stage to find out the progress on a
piece of work.

What I would like to do, is automatically save the sent email in a
particular folder on my laptop and set some sort of reminder automatically to
contact them again in 7days time..

I have no idea if this can be done or how to do it if it can, can anyone
help me please??

Regards

John

Saving the sent mail via rule into a specific folder is certainly possible.
Consult the Rules Wizard for the steps required. A tool like
http://www.slovaktech.com/extendedreminders.htm can provide the reminders
for non-default folders.
