Window Outlook - rule forwards email not seeing it in the Sent Items folder

In my past experience when using the stand-alone version of Outlook, using rules to forward emails to another user the email forwarded would show up in my Sent Items.  I like this feature as it allowed me to verify the rule was working and for historical purposes.  I'm now using Windows 10 Outlook and that feature is not working.  Email sent are showing up in my Sent Items, It only Email sent by a rule is not showing up. Is this by design, a configuration issue?  

Thanks

    Just did a search to see why the rule I setup wasn't posting the forwarded mail to my sent folders and found this.  I too think this is bad behavior.  I just set this rule up and thought it wasn't working.

  • Hi, thanks for the message. This functionality is not available in the new Outlook by design, but we will evaluate this scenario.

      Well this is silly!!! I came here wondering the exact same thing, figured my rule wasn't working.
