You can forward or redirect email from one mailbox to another
email address. By creating an email redirect or alias, messages
are sent to a different email box without requiring the sender
to know the new address. Email can be redirected to an address
outside the domain. Use this redirect feature to:
- Temporarily forward mail when the person who owns
the mailbox is unavailable.
- Send mail to a new mailbox if a mailbox user is
leaving the company.
- Forward mail to a new account, which will eventually
replace an old mailbox. (e.g. someone is changing their
name but hasn't had time to inform all correspondents of
the change yet).
In order to enable and set a redirect for the mail name,
follow these steps:
- On the mail name properties page, click the Redirect
icon.
- Select the Redirect checkbox, and in the text box to
the right, enter the appropriate address that you wish
mail for this mail name to be forwarded to.
- Click OK.
Once enabled, the Redirects icon on the Mail Names page
appears in colour.
