Copy & Delete new files from SD card

What I want to do:

Every time i connect my SD-Card-Device (Digital Pocket Memo), I want Hazel to copy the new files into two different folders (one local, one on server within the LAN) and after that delete the files from the SD-card.


What I tried:

I tried to set up a rule:
If all of the following conditions are met
Date Added is after Date last Matched
Do the following to the matched filed or folder
copy to folder "local" +
copy to folder "on server" +
Move to folder trash


What happens:

The rule copies the new files to both folders, as expected, but than it moves the file out of the second folder to the trash, instead out of the SD-Card-folder.


What I need to know:

How do i get Hazel to move the first file from the SD card, instead of the copy.

After a copy, the subsequent actions operate on the copy, not the original. Start with a move first then copies after that instead.
