How to setup rule to move deleted items to folder outside Outlook 2010?

There is no way to do this. Outlook rules are for incoming and outgoing messages only. There is a way to create a VBA macro however.

    I have a question identical to the one below, however I cannot use the answer given. I don't know if I should continue in the existing thread, or create a new question. I hope I chose correctly.

    Automatically move deleted Outlook items to archive folder after two weeks

    The problem is I want to save deleted mails to an folder on my drive, but can't use autoarchive (as suggested in the other thread), since autoarchive is controlled by our IT department, and I don't want to mess with them on this.

    Is there any other way to do this? Preferably with a outlook rule (but I'm open to other suggestions)

      Manually you can drag-n-drop mail to a folder and then delete them from Outlook. If you want to automate it, how do you want to trigger it?

      Manually I can fix it yes, thanks. Preferably I would like to automate it on f.x deletion. E.g. when a mail is deleted it would be saved to the folder.
