Outlook 2013 offers customizable rules that help automatically manage your email, such as moving a message, flagging it, forwarding it or assigning a category. Using a forwarding rule, you could forward a copy of incoming emails to your Gmail account for a backup or to keep another person in the loop. If you don't specify checking criteria, Outlook applies the forwarding rule to all emails you receive.
