I should create a new mailbox e.g. [email protected]. Mails to [email protected] should be forwarded to [email protected] and [email protected]. How can I do this with Exchange Server 2007? The best would be without separate Active Directory user, but I'm afraid this is not possible.
I know how I can forward an existing mailbox to an email contact(external) or other internal mailbox. I also know how to forward from [email protected] to [email protected] with the help of a email contact. But how to forward to an internal and external email address without an AD user?
Or another way: I can add the [email protected] to [email protected]. So [email protected] would receive the email. But how can I forward emails from [email protected] to [email protected]?
Solution:
- Create a mailbox with [email protected].
- Create an e-mail contact ([email protected])
- Create a distribution group with two members: My external e-mail contact ([email protected]) and my AD user ([email protected]).
- Forward [email protected] to the group.
But now I have created an extra mailbox with AD user, which I wanted to avoid. Also I have now a group with a separate SMTP address, which I also don't need. And I don't know if the difference between Exchange and Active Directory is good (external contact, group not in AD).
