Automatically reply to or forward emails

  1. In the Mail app on your Mac, choose Mail > Preferences, then click Rules.

  2. Click Add Rule, then type a name for the rule.

  3. Indicate whether any or all of the conditions must be true for the rule to be applied.

    • Forward messages: Choose Forward Message from the first pop-up menu, then enter the email addresses where you want to receive the forwarded messages.

  2. Choose Message > Redirect.
