SAM SAM
Determine the "identity" of your emails. Set with SAM the sender and the folder folder for sent items with the help of rules.

With rules you can only look for your own address in the cc field in order to move the email. With this example you can look for any string in CC. If it's found, the email will be moved into a subfolder of the inbox. In this sample the folder is named 'test'.
