Forwarding mail accounts

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hi folks,

I’m trying to take up with an existing installation so this may be basic but I’ve had no luck finding the solution. I’m trying to forward an email account from a departing employee to someone else. I realize that I can create a rule to do that in the account’s in box, but what appears to have been done in the past is something a bit different. I run across a few email databases which get flagged on server restart and indicate that the account doesn’t exist in the directory but that it is forwarded to someone else. This happens during the consistency check phase. That leads to 2 questions.

Is there a way to track down where those mails are going?

Is there a means to forward email for an account which gets deleted?

I realize the 2nd seems to be a contradiction in terms, but the existing email databases seem to indicate that it is possible.

TIA,

Melvin

Melvin,

Check the mailin Documents or a short name.

The error you see on the console is because the name is not in the Directory anymore.

If the security is setup right hopefully the personDoc is in a Deny Access Group.

However if the email address was persona@holymoly.org then you could add ‘persona’ as a short name for person R and person R would receive all internet mail for Person A.

Alternatively you could configure a mailin record that points persona@holymoly.org to the mail DB for Person R.
