Built for Outlook

Rules for the email you send.

SentRules files the sent copy automatically by recipient or domain — inside Outlook — so every client, matter, account, project, and vendor gets the correspondence that belongs there.

THE PROBLEM

Sending the email is easy. Filing the sent copy is still manual.

If your work is organized by client, account, matter, project, or vendor, Sent Items becomes a second inbox you have to clean by hand.

WITHOUT SENTRULES

Sent Items becomes a holding pen.

Send. Search. Drag. Repeat. Or give up and let it pile up.

WITH SENTRULES

The sent copy routes itself.

Set the rule once. SentRules evaluates the message and files the copy into the folder you chose.

HOW IT WORKS

Three decisions. Then the filing disappears.

SentRules lives inside Outlook. You keep composing mail normally; it handles the sent copy after the send.

01 / CREATE THE RULE

Tell SentRules what belongs together.

Match one recipient or an entire domain and choose the destination folder.

Recipient or domain
@acme.com
Destination
Clients / Acme
Save rule
02 / SEND IN OUTLOOK

Know the rule matches before you send.

The live preview tells you exactly what SentRules plans to do with the sent copy.

03 / FILED AUTOMATICALLY

One send. The copy lands where it belongs.

No dragging. No second pass through Sent Items. No duplicate send.

✓ FILED → Clients / Acme
WHY TRUST IT

When mail is ambiguous, SentRules stops instead of guessing.

Automation only helps if it behaves safely when Outlook changes underneath it. SentRules resolves live folder identity, detects conflicts, and leaves the sent copy alone when it cannot file with confidence.

Sends once.The send/file operation is journaled so it is not replayed accidentally.
Fails closed.Missing or unsafe folder? The message stays in Sent Items instead of disappearing.
No-guess conflicts.Two rules pointing to different folders are reported, not silently resolved.
Historical cleanup does not resend.Cleanup moves existing sent copies. It separately proves historical sends and deletes remain zero.

SENTRULES ADVANCED

Not just a rule. A sent-mail control surface.

Advanced is built for people who actually depend on folder discipline.

PERSISTENT RULES

Keep the filing logic you rely on.

Save multiple recipient and domain rules, enable or disable them, and let SentRules evaluate them together.

CONFLICTS

No guess means no surprise.

If matching rules disagree, the message is left untouched.

HISTORICAL CLEANUP

LIVE FOLDER IDENTITY

Rename folders. SentRules follows the folder, not stale text.

Folder IDs and live ancestry keep duplicate names, renames, and nested folders straight.

SETUP

Install it. Connect Outlook. Save one rule.

No separate desktop app to learn. SentRules opens as an Outlook add-in pane beside the message you are composing.

1

Add SentRules to Outlook

Open SentRules from Outlook Apps. The pane appears beside your compose window.

2

Connect your Microsoft mailbox

SentRules loads your live folders while excluding Deleted Items and its descendants.

3

Create the rule you already have in your head

“Anything to this client goes in this folder.” Save it once.

4

Send normally — with proof before the click

The preview tells you whether the current message matches and where the sent copy will go.

FAQ

The questions that matter before you trust it with sent mail.

Does SentRules send duplicate messages?

SentRules is built around a single send operation and a send-operation journal. The accepted Outlook build was smoke-tested by sending exactly once, filing the sent copy, and leaving both Sent Items and Drafts clean.

What happens if the destination folder is renamed?

SentRules resolves the destination by live Microsoft folder identity and rebuilds its current path. A renamed parent or folder can still be recognized without relying on stale display text.

What if the folder was deleted?

SentRules fails closed. It sends the message once, skips unsafe filing, keeps the sent copy safe in Sent Items, and tells you not to resend.

What if two saved rules match the same message?

If they point to different destinations, SentRules reports a conflict and moves nothing. It will not guess which folder you meant.

Can it clean up old Sent Items?

Yes. Advanced previews historical Sent Items against your saved rules, shows matches, conflicts, blocked destinations, and proof totals, then moves only the unambiguous messages you approve.

Is SentRules a Microsoft product?

No. SentRules is an independent Outlook add-in. Microsoft and Outlook are trademarks of their respective owners.
