Vaporizer? If you have a rule that forwards to Contacts, that would be a client-based rule, right?
Sincerely, Andrey Fyodorov Systems Engineer Messaging and Collaboration Spherion -----Original Message----- From: Jim Becker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 10:41 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Messages vaporizing in the Categorizer Here's the process: Internet messages are delivered to a Public Folder which has Subject line-based rules to forward messages to various GAL Contacts. (The Contacts are Custom Recipients migrated from Ex 5.5.) A couple of the rules are set to forward to various raw SMTP Internet addresses as well. I set the Auto Forward checkbox in the Internet Mail Format area of Global Settings for each address space and the rules fire just fine. Unfortunately, the forwards don't go to the Contacts, appearing to disappear at the Categorizer, while the raw SMTP addresses receive the distribution. The Contacts are set to receive mail from Everyone so there's no delivery restriction in play that I know of. I turned up logging for the MSExchangeTransport service, SMTP Protocol and Categorizer categories to Maximum. Looked at the logs and the last entry with respect to these forwarded messages is one Event 1029 for each of the forward addresses, however, only the raw SMTP entry gets delivered - the ones representing Contacts do not. There is no event in the Application Log correlating to this problem. If I change the SMTP address on the Contacts and simply enter its old raw SMTP address in the forward rule, the deliveries work just fine. Change the Contacts and rule back, and it fails. My choice of search criteria in Technet hasn't yielded anything interesting. What else can be looked at, or are Contacts not allowed in PF forward rules?
