Make email appear in multiple folders

I would like to have an email appear in multiple folders in my outlook. Note that I do NOT want a copy of the email in each folder. Here is my situation -

I have one rule that places all emails directly to me in one folder, and another rule that moves emails from my team to a different folder. However if the email is from my team AND to me it is only moved into my from team folder. How can I have the email show up in both folders without making a copy?

I know of no way to do this. I have serious doubts its even possible in Outlook – Ramhound – 2014-02-28T14:39:11.720

Search Folders. – Raystafarian – 2014-02-28T14:39:50.397

A good tool for this is Search Folders.

If you find yourself scouring your Inbox and various Outlook folders for specific types of mails, there is an easier way. You can create Search Folders for all sorts of common tasks, and then they'll just be a click away!

It does not copy the messages into the folder, it simply creates a way to find, organize and view them.

Its not ideal, but I guess its not too bad either. – David says Reinstate Monica – 2014-02-28T15:37:59.177

This is the best you can get. For example, in Gmail their "labels" are not more than just saved searches (search folders in Outlook). – thims – 2014-02-28T18:19:54.227
