When a survey form is created the results come as a standard email. The recipient of the email can configure their email account to sort and store these results seperately from their normal email.
The recipient needs to set up a folder in their email account to store the responses.

Follow the Options link at the top of the page
Follow the Message Filters link and click the button to Add a New Rule
Follow the prompts to create a Header Match where the header Subject: contains the subject line generated by your survey form.
On the Action page that follows, set the rule to Move message into and select the destination for your responses. If you haven’t got a folder already, select the option to create a new folder, named with a name that logically matches your survey. If you plan on doing a lot of surveys this way, it might be a good idea to first create a ‘Surveys’ folder and put all of your individual survey folders inside that - it’s a personal choice.
Finally, if the confirmation page looks right, click the Finished button to return to the filters page. Then you must click the Save Changes button at the bottom of the page to add the rule.
In most cases, several people will want to track the progress of a survey. You can share a folder with other users so that they can see the responses or, optionally, manage the responses.
From within Outlook/Entourage, you can change the permissions of a folder to allow others to see its contents. Use the help within the client software for instructions on how to do this.
From your
webmail page, follow the
Shares link at the top of the page. The last panel on this page will be titled
Add New User Permission Select the folder you wish to share from the drop-down list, then insert the unimelb user name of the person you wish to share with and use the checkboxes to select whether you want them to be able to just read the responses, or have higher permissions.
Click to Add User and continue to add more users to the same share if required
The users you share with need to log into
webmail, click on the ‘folders’ icon and use the subscribe/unsubscribe panel at the bottom of the page to manage available folders. Once subscribed to your shared folder the end user will see your folder in their folder list under
Other Users → YourUsername → SharedFolderName
