Sure they do - and worse yet, your internal users will have no idea that their presumed secure internal communications are being forwarded to some unknown external mail system across the internet.

Then on the users actual Domain Account, I set the Exchange General > Delivery Options > Forwarding Address to forward to the AD Contact. You can have email delivered locally as well so there's a copy here as well as sent to their home. I've been doing it off and on for a couple of years without any problems. I suppose that if the home user had a rule to forward things back to the office as well, it could create a loop, but I don't see that happening. They certainly don't want a rule to forward dirty jokes from their Uncle Tasteless to the corporate office. Bill From: Devin Meade [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2008 8:12 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Allowing external forwards Oh mighty Exchange gurus, We have a user wanting to fwd all emails to an external address. We run Exchange 2003 and fwd to external is turned off. If I turn this on, will we be vulnerable to a mail loop? We run one domain only. I see this here: ESM > Global Settings > Internet Message Formats > Default (which has * listed at the Domain) > Properties > Advanced > "Allow auto foward" is unchecked.
