i am using outlook 98.

i was trying to use the rules wizard to make the following rule:

when an email arrives that is addressed to a specific person, have Outlook automatically send a generic message to a third person.

ex: mary sends john an email. john's rules wizard causes outlook to automatically send fred an email with the message 'new email'. (fred doesn't get the original email, he only gets an email with a short message).

i see outlook has a rule to reply using a specific template and also a rule to forward the email to a specific person, but what i need is in between those 2 things. i don't want to reply to sender and i don't want to forward the original email.

i want to reply to a third person using a specific message, but nOT including the original email.

does anyone know how to do this?
thanks,
ruth
