How to keep my reply message into the same

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel
Email Client: pop

Is there anyone can help me to find out the solution of my problem, I can do that very easy in my PC with Outlook, but have no idea how I can do the same with the Entourage 2008.

Below is the problem I have:

I usually receive mail from different customer or mail about different project, so I organized the email in different folder. For example, I have "Customer A", Customer B", "Project C" and "Project D". If I received a email from customer A, before I reply the mail, I will put it in the "Customer A" folder first and then reply it. After I reply, the reply message goes to the "Sent Item" folder. Then I needed to move it manually to the "Customer A
folder, it takes time to do this coz I have over a hundred email needed to reply everyday.

So here is the question, how I can keep the mail I reply into the folder which the original message are placed automatically?

Thanks!

Go to Tools??>Rules

You can define rules for Incoming messages under any of the "Mail" account
tabs (POP, IMAP, Hotmail, and Exchange). *Incoming* mail will automatically
be placed in the folder associated with each particular rule. (e.g., mail
*from* "Customer A" will be placed in the "Customer A" folder, according to
the "Mail" rule you defined for "Customer A"). To handle the corresponding
*Outgoing* messages, you need to define similar rules under the "Outgoing"
tab (e.g., mail *to* "Customer A" will be placed in the "Customer A" folder
according to the "Outgoing" rule you defined for "Customer A").
