If you are using E2K... the following would work. 1. dump current contents to a PST file (you can password protect this if its sensitive enough). forward this to that new location.
2. set 'altRecipient' in AD to point to a mail-enabled account that points to this external address. ADU&C->Exchange General->Delivery Options->Forward to:... this will then pass the messages on without delivering to the mailbox and filling it. jeff e. -----Original Message----- From: zEXList [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 30, 2002 1:30 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Forwarding mailbox contents Todd, You can do this a few ways: 1.

Just be sure not to save a copy of the forwarded message in the sent folder. 2. Copy the mailbox contents to a PST where you have complete control of the messages. You'll still have to forward the messages manually, and the PST is only a point in time copy of the mailbox. 3. </product pitch on> You could take a look our product Content Inspector for Exchange which can automate this function. </product pitch off> --- Greg www.IntelliReach.com Boston, MA > -----Original Message----- > From: Boynton, Todd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, December 30, 2002 11:47 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: Forwarding mailbox contents > > > Is there a way for an administrator to forward the entire > contents of a > mailbox to an external address without having to login to the mailbox. > The mailbox contains old messages that contain sensitive information. > > Thanks > > Todd Boynton [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ============================================ > == Communications Specialist > == UNET Technology Services, Network Operations > == Maine School and Library Network > == University of Maine System > ============================================ > > > _________________________________________________________________ > List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm > Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp > To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
