Need help creating Gmail routing rule

Goal

  1. Create a routing rule that takes all emails addressed specifically to originaluser@example.com (internal user) and reroutes them to reroutegroup@example.com (internal Google Group)
  2. Bypass this setting for trusteddomain.com

Routing Rule (Apps -> Google Workspace -> Gmail -> Routing -> Add Another Rule)

1. Email messages to affect

  • Inbound (YES)
  • Outbound (NO)
  • Internal - Sending (?)
  • Internal - Receiving (?)

2. For the above types of messages, do the following

  • Change envelope recipient - replace recipient: reroutegroup@example.com

A. Address lists

  • Use address lists to bypass or control application of this setting: Apply address lists to correspondents
    • Bypass this setting for specific addresses / domains: trusteddomain.com

B. Account types to affect

  • Users (?)
  • Groups (?)
  • Unrecognized / Catch-all (NO)

C. Enveloper filter

  • Only affect specific envelope recipients: originaluser@example.com

Questions

I'm not really sure what the functional difference is between Internal - Sending and Internal - Receiving with the creation of this routing rule and when to use either or both?

Google's documentation:

  • Internal-sending—Internal message with one of the domains or subdomains from your organization listed in the To field
  • Internal-receiving—Internal message with one of your organization's domains or subdomains, listed in the From field

For Email messages to affect, which would I choose for this use-case and why / why not?

For Account types to affect, would I only select Users?
