Hi, I have this scenario I want to set up. I want emails from a particular sender (unique) to go into my Exchange 2003 mailbox and also forward another copy to my cell phone. I want to use Exchange to do this automatically. I know this could be accomplished using Rules in my Outlook. However, I know the rules only runs when I open my Outlook (to the best of my knowledge). This defeats the purpose of sending the emails to my cell phone since those are important server messages I want to see when I'm not using Outlook in the office. Any ideas? TIA Tom
I think you should be able to use Outlook server-based rules to auto-foward the incoming messages. The client-based rules normally apply to filters - like deleting incoming mail from a sender. in a situation like that you would have to have outlook open because it would have to first be viewable in the inbox and then sent to the deleted items folder.
