Are you running in mixed mode with Exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2003? I have this same issue in my Mixed mode environment, however the duplicates only occur on my Exchange 5.5 mailboxes with the automatic forwarding to contacts/custom recipients. I will not go into detail as to why this occurs until you reply stating that you are running the same type of setup. If you are not in mixed mode, I am not sure why this is happening to you.

I setup a "contact" with an external email. I configure a client's account and have all his email "COPIED" to that Contact ( which is the extermal email address ). However, incoming emails from outside are forward to hte Contact's address twice. emails sent from internal domain is find ( only 1 forwarD). Is there any setting on the Front-end or Back-end server??? PS: this happens to all the exchange clients who need mail forward. Thanks alot Henry ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: Chris.Wall@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
