As a result of a problem on a remote client, I have decided to redirect the user’s E-Mails to his own home E-Mail address until he can bring his laptop into the office.
I have set up the redirect using a simple Agent and it works.
The issue I have is that all E-Mails arrive to him with the From address as the Mail Administrator.
Is there a way I can get the real sender’s details to appear in the From field for the user?

Yes. Several approaches described in the Agent FAQ.

Thank you, I looked there and in troubleshooting but I thought that was just for ‘internal’ addressing? I want to forward the original ‘external’ address.

Becca had a good pointer, this coveres interternal as well as external mail.

I think I’ve been a bit thick here.
I’ve now implemented a local rule in the client and what I need is working (i.e. mail goes into Lotus Notes as well as external address and it appears at the external address as if it is from the original sender; this covers external and internal mails):
When To contains name@domain.com
or CC contains name@domain.com
or BCC contains name@domain.com
or To contains firstname secondname
or CC contains firstname secondname
or BCC contains firstname secondname
send full copy to name@externalinternetaddress.com

I have now changed the Domino directory person details to use another mail system and set the address as the external address.
Although this ‘works’, it means that I no longer retain a copy of the E-Mail in the Domino directory.
I’d like to be able to keep Domino up to date.
