RE: How to automate forwarding all mails in a mailbox to an ext a ddre ss

[Adil Hindistan]

Title: Message

Since you have these e-mails in a .pst file, I think you can create a rule which would forward the message to his new e-mail address. Although  normally rules would run when the messages arrive, you can use them in the inbox (RUN NOW).

 

The challage would be to create a rule which would cause each and every e-mail to be forwarded. Well, it may not be possible to create a rule to include all, but maybe you can create more than a few. For example, if you  create a rule which includes "SENT TO", you may clear most of the messages. Looking at the messages you may come up with some 'creative' rules :)

Hi Williams,

 

I have setup the custom recipient for his New Zealand address sometime ago and using the Alternate

recipient to forward mails to the new address.  Now he is requesting me to forward all his old mails

to the new address.  At first I have export his mailbox to a personal folder and ask the administrator

at New Zealand to download it from out ftp server.  The problems lies that Waikato Univ in New Zealand

is using Mac and have problem converting the pst file to Mac format.

 

Going into Outlook and forward mails one by one is tedious, he must has thoundsands of mails.

Is there any tools available for me to do this?  Otherwise the option left is for me to look for a Mac,

install Outlook in Mac, export out to Mac format then send to him again.  In Singapore here we

hardly used any Mac and I do not have one within the comp centre here.

Exchange5.5:

Create a custom recipient with his New Zealand address.

Go to his mailbox properties, Delivery Options, and select the custom recipient as an alternate recipient.

Hide both from the GAL.

 

Exchange2000:

Replace 'custom recipient' with 'mail-enabled contact'

Go to AD Users and Computers and open the mailbox properties.

Exchange General Tab --> Delivry Options --> Forwarding Address.

Need some help, we are a university campus here.  One visiting professor has left

after 1 yr of service.  He is asking is it possible to use a utilities or scripts to

go to his mailbox and extract and forward all mails to his new email address in

New Zealand.  Can I used Outlook to do this?  Or is there any utility out there

that can do this?
