Strange but I'm not seeing the "Delivery Options" section in ADUC ?!?
This is what worked on my test account: 1) Created testuser 2) Assigned email address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3) Right-click on user > Exchange Tasks > Establish email address > alias is testuser2 > external email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note: changing this later under "Exchange General" automatically populates the address entered into the "Email Addresses" Tab., but it's not populated initially) 4) Added smtp address for [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5) Entered into Exchange System Manager > Global Settings > Internet Message Formats > Properties on Default > Advanced > Check "Allow Automatic Forwarding" 6) Test sending from Exchange and from external accounts. Everything works. Thanks for all the advice!

All should be good here.> 2) created a mailbox with custom recipient of [EMAIL PROTECTED] <Based on your response to Leann, I'm now assuming you are E2k. Did you create a contact in the AD w/mail address [EMAIL PROTECTED]?> 3) went into the email addresses tab and entered an smtp address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] <No. Put the email addresses back to what they were. Instead, go to Delivery Options of the [EMAIL PROTECTED] Enter the name of the contact created in step#1 in the Forward To option> I tried to send a message from exchange and got this answer: The following recipient(s) could not be reached: testuser on 1/16/2002 3:48 PM The message was undeliverable because the recipient specified has changed address permanently and forwarding was not applicable I'd like the global address list to show [EMAIL PROTECTED] , but quietly in the background forward all mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] What did I do wrong?
