Well, What Mike wanted is, the recipient has a local address in the Exchange organization, then the incoming mail gets forwarded to the aol.com account. Like, the mail comes to user@xxxxxxxxxxxx and gets auto forwarded to user@xxxxxxxxxxx How do you do that just by using contacts, where in contacts do you set forwarding to an alternate address???

Then give it the local address you want it to respond to. -----Original Message----- From: Periyasamy, Raj [mailto:Raj.Periyasamy@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, September 10, 2004 11:39 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: forwarding emails and licensing http://www.MSExchange.org/ I did not know that.

Contacts are user objects that have an email address outside your organization, so that users in your organization can look up these Contacts from the GAL. If you want to have all users an email address in your organization such as user@xxxxxxxxxxxx, and you want some of these users to automatically forward all incoming messages to an aol.com account, I don't think you can do that using simple mail enabled contacts. You need mailbox enabled user objects. Regards, Raj -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

M. Salim [mailto:msalim@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, September 10, 2004 9:57 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] forwarding emails and licensing http://www.MSExchange.org/ Hi all, I have a client who has about 20 real mailboxes, and then they have about 80 users who won't have email boxes, just forwards to an external email like their personal AOL or a hotmail accounts. This is for a church. The only method I can see in Exchange requires me to install "real mail enabled accounts" for each one and then set each one to forward, but from a CAL (licensing) point of view, these 80 users would still have to pay for a CAL license even thought they are not really using Exchange other than as a forwarding engine. Any ideas on how I can accomplish this without making having to set up real mail enabled accounts in Exchange? best regards Mike ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives:
