Outlook365 rule for incoming CC and BCC messages
Hello, here is my question about Outlook 365 rules I receive messages addressed two different email addresses: myself_at_example.com and mygroup_at_example.com By default, all these messages...

There is no condition you can use for the BCC scenario. The CC one is doable via the "where my name is in the CC box" condition.

Thank you for answering.
I now understand the BCC scenario is not possible
The CC scenario can be realized with only my personal email address: 'myself_at_example.com'
The other email address in my example: 'mygroup_at_example.com' is a group email address and I'm one of the many members of this group.
I don't see a possibility the move email messages addressed to 'mygroup_at_example.com' and received in the Cc box to the Outlook folder "My Cc".
I hope somebody is able to make this possible in Outlook365. Any suggestions?
- VasilMichevJan 08, 2022MVPFor that, you can use the "with specific words in the recipient's address" condition.

Thanks again for answering.
I don't see how this should solve my issue.
With your proposal I can move ALL messages received by the group email address to a specific folder. I see no possibility to split messages send to the INBOX and messages send to the CC box.
Can you be more specific by describing the rule-steps?
Thank you.- VasilMichevJan 10, 2022MVPYou want to distinguish between messages addressed directly to you and those addressed to the group, right? For the former, you can use the "where my name is in the TO/CC box" type of condition. Anything not captured by such rule will be not be directly addressed to you, and you will be receiving it because you're a member of a group. The condition I mentioned above allows you to further narrow it down by which group exactly the message was addressed to, then decide on an action.
You need to use multiple rules, not one.
