There are pros & cons for these 2 methods. Rule wizard - give user's flexibility to turn on the out of office & redirect their emails to elsewhere.
Alternate recipient - user has to contact ITS all the time & usually they like to do redirection too frequently. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dickenson, Steven Sent: Tuesday, 12 August 2003 10:32 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Urgent Help - Email forwarding stop working Out of curiosity, why are you doing this with Outlook Rules? I would use the Alternate Recipient option. We do this here for a few teachers who aren't on campus most of the day.

Both the out of office assistant and the rules wizard are used for this purpose by different staff For unknown reason for a months now, this email forwarding feature no longer works and no obvious errors found. Exchange MailBox Server = Exchange 5.5 Server with SP4 level runs on NT4 member server with OS SP6a Exchange Internet Mail Service server = Exchange 5.5 Server with SP4 level BUT runs on Windows 2000 member server with OS SP3 Client version = MS Outlook XP The only difference is we have upgraded the Exchange IMC Server OS from NT4.0 to Windows 2000 last month. Can someone give me some hints where the problems could be? Thanks in advanced.
