• If you want to forward emails from a specific folder or label, you can use the "Rules" feature to set up a rule that forwards emails from that folder or label.
• If you want to forward emails from a specific sender or recipient, you can use the "Rules" feature to set up a rule that forwards emails from that sender or recipient.
• You can also use third-party add-ins or plugins to forward emails in Outlook, but this may require additional setup and configuration.
