Auto forward Emails from Outlook to SharePoint Document Library

Some days before one of my client wanted to auto forward outlook emails to one of SharePoint document library. I ran through following steps to achieve the given task.

• Make sure Target Doc Lib contains Email address and it’s working
• Then go to Outlook and click on New > Contact
• Add Email address of that document library into the Outlook Contacts.
• Save it and now create a rule from Outlook > Tools > Rules and Alerts > New Rule
• Select “Start from a blank rule” option.
• Select Check messages when they arrive > Next
• Select “Condition” for which you want to forward emails to Doc Lib in step 2.
• Then select action “forwards it to people or distribution list” and click on people or distribution list
• Select “Outlook Address book” from Address Book drop down and you will getSharePoint Document Library email address as a contact > Add it
• Click on Next > Finish

Now send an email with that condition to check rule.

Feel free to ask me if you have any questions.
