I had a few administrators and end-users ask about how to set up mail forwarding for their inbox once this has been
enabled on the domain. Mail forwarding is achieved through inbox rules, and I have documented the steps for this below.
- Log onto Exchange Labs
- Click 'Options' (top right-ish of screen)
- Click the 'Organize' tab
- Click the Inbox Rules' tab
- Click the 'New Rule' menu
- Select 'Create a new rule for arriving messages' and a New Rule Window will appear.
- Select 'Forward or Redirect' and check 'Redirect the message to people or distribution lists'. This rule will be added to the rule description on the left.
- Click the 'people or distribution lists hyperlink'
- In the Recipients box type the email address you want to forward to - eg jack@hotmail.com. You can also select another address from the GAL or your contacts list if this has been created already.
- Click OK
- Give the rule a name in the Name box
- Click 'Save'
