Hello

I want to be able to forward all mail arriving to an account to an additional IM address or another "sink" account as well as retaining the mail item in the initial mail account.

Can this be done ?

Is that you, Mark? ;-)

A server-side forward rule will retain the message in the original Inbox; this is unlike a Redirect rule which would only send the message to the target address.

Cheers,
Florian.

Yes. Thanks Florian

But this will forward the mail as an attachment from what i have read.
Is there a way to forward so that that the mail isn't seen as an attachment ?
Our CEO has all mail to him forwarded to a blackberry account. I can't see him being happy with receiving attachments.

You can configure a redirection to retain the message in the intray of the user.

If you have 9.2.1 installed, there is a python script called sxaa in the /admin_resource_kit directory.

This allows an administrator to configure some basic server-side rules which includes a redirection.

So, in the case of redirecting to another address, the command would be:

Take a look at the readme file that goes with the script and come back if anything is unclear.

Cheers
