Hi.
We are preparing to work with an external partner on the handling of certain documents and as part of that we need to be able to pass incoming emails containing these as attachments directly out to them again, and since they will do the handling, delete the inbound email directly.
Imagine my joy when I saw that this may be done with a Powershell cmdlet and not with outlook connected to the mailbox! I built the following command:
New-InBoxRule -Mailbox "Mailbox, internal" -Name "Forward to partner" -ExceptIfHasAttachment $true -DeleteMessage $true -ForwardTo SMTP:external.partner@company.com
And it ran without problems. Get-InBoxRule reports what I expect.
The only unexpected thing is that the test emails just sit in the inbox without showing any sign of intending to move. I know that certain actions require the client, but as far as I've been able to make out the above are not among them?
What am I doing wrong?
Share and enjoy
