Automatically redirect (not forward) message based on rule...

[Guest]

The following MS document details creating a rule to redirect (not FORWAD) a
message (preseving headers, format, etc.) to a person or distribution list:

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA011502011033.aspx

The option to "forward" is there but the "redirect to people or distribution
list" checkbox isn't on my installation (Outlook 2003 11.56). Why? Is this
limited to using Exchange servers only? And if so...that sucks...and
furthermore why isn't this noted in the article. Thanks for any answers.

Yep, its limited to Exchange users only. (verified by checking an exchange
only account vs pop3)

Don't know, but I can ask.

Neo...thanks! That's what I figured. Good looking out...on xmas eve at that.

I would think that MS would go out out of their way to let users know as it
could obviously translate into more Exchange sales...

Anyway thanks again for the quick response. Hmmm wonder how hard it would
be to write this... .NET hopefully, can't f'with VBA
