Google on that attribute gets 2 results
  Translate http://www.msxfaq.de/migration/targetaddress.htm to English and 
there's a little info, not much.
MSDN Bings nothing.
Search on our Premier site returns 0 results. TAM didn't find anything either 
so it must be secret even to Microsoft.

So I pulled the schema reference from here 
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=5401 and 
all it has is that it is for the Mail-Receipient Class and the Change is 
add:mayContain.

Any idea where documentation is on the values for that attribute?

Thanks. Any idea what attribute is used to store that?

You are correct, the example is wrong. I'll report it. You still don't have to 
have a mail contact if you don't want one. You do this instead:

                Set-mailbox -ForwardingSMTPAddress 
addr...@example.com<mailto:addr...@example.com>

Note the addition of "smtp" in the parameter.

So, I create a new Mail Contact with the external address then use that object 
for the option -ForwardingAddress it works.

In AD altRecipent is in fact set to the DN of the previously created Mail 
Contact object.

And there are several new attributes on that object vs. what we used in 2003.

MS's docs here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd351134.aspx appear 
to be incorrect, when I try using their example it says there's no such object. 
I didn't think it was as simple as passing the target address.

Set-Mailbox requires a mailbox, which means that it requires a user object. 
That's far different than a contact.

TTBOMK, the actual implementation of forwarding hasn't changed (in terms of the 
attributes used), but Exchange 2010 does stamp objects with more attributes 
than Exchange 2003 or Exchange 2007 did, and if the attribute's versions aren't 
correct then Exchange 2010 complains.

What does Exchange do when you set the forwarding via Set-Mailbox? How is that 
forward actually implemented by 2010?

If it's truly a CONTACT then you should be using New-MailContact. You can also 
migrate an AD contact to an Exchange contact by using Enable-MailContact.

Subject: 2010 Mail Forwarding

For mail forwarding, in Exchange 2003 we built a web app that creates a contact 
object with a targetAddress of the external email then "attached" that to the 
altRecipient attribute for the user. This still works after we "upgrade" the 
contact object to work with 2010, however I would like to move this to a more 
native 2010 method. Is it really as simple as Set-Mailbox -Identity <> 
-ForwardingAddress <address>?

If so, where does Exchange store this forwarded address?
