When I set up a rule in Outlook 2003 to foward e-mail to a cell phone, the
message does not go through. If I forward an e-mail manually, it works fine.
Hello,
Is this a change in Exchange 2003? I seem to remember creating rules in
Outlook/Exchange2000 (and older) to forward to external internet email
accounts without having to make any changes on the Exchange server. Also I
am having problems trying to set up a "rule" to only forward certain message
criteria, not all messages but I can only get all or nothing to work. Any
ideas? Thanks!

All is well - as long as the Gobal setting to allow forwarding is tuned on on
the Exchange serv er AND a mail enabled contact is created for the (each)
external address that you want to forward to.
Previous to Exchange 2003 we were able to set up Outlook rules to do this,
so it is possible that it was turned on on the server by default as I did not
make any changes to the exchange server previously. (that is all I was trying
to say).
The missing piece for me was the "enabled contact" without it I could not
set up Outlook rules that worked. e.g. only forward messages with certain
words in the subject line. thanks for all the comments.
