How to forward an email from my account using a Rule Trying to forward an email from my account ***@comcast.net to my wife's ***@comcast.net by setting up a Rule in Mail. It is not working. I can send an email to Trash, but not forward. Thanks, Rick

Mail Rule to forward an email to another user's account not working I've set up a rule to forward an email to my wife's account when a certain sender comes in, but it does not forward the email. Nothing happens. I can manually forward it, but it should be able to automatically forward it. Is this a known bug? I submitted a question back in July but only got an answer telling me how to set up a rule. Thanks, Rick

You need to setup the forward in Mail at iCloud.com.

The suggested solution of going into iCloud to set forwarding rules did not work for me.
