Greetings,
I want to thank everyone for all their help with my Imail to
Exchange conversion. There were a few gotchas along the way, but I think
that's mostly because of the way that our director wanted things done.
He has tasked me with one final question for the list. We still have the
Imail server up and active and the accounts are still there. For
example; I have the exact same email name/address on my Imail as on my
Echange server. The Imail server has been set up to direct messages to
Exchange and that is working. My director wanted to know if it's
possible to log into Imail via webmail, for example, and send a message
to a user (remembering that the user is in both places) and have it
auto-magically delivered to the Exchange server. I have tried messing
with numerous settings on Imail, but none seem to do the trick. I was
wondering if this is possible and if so how??? Thanks again for all the
great help and suggestions.
Jim
