I want to track an e-mail that comes into my system from a Yahoo/Hotmail accout. This person from Yahoo/Hotmail acct send e-mail to few of my users in my domain. What I want to do is to have every mail that comes from this person come into my mailbox and also 1 copy goes to the destined user automatically.
Is this Possible ? and how ?
I am using Exchange 5.5 on NT 4.0.
Any help would be appreciated !!!

The best way to handle this would be to set up an alternate recipient on the mailbox that you're wanting to monitor, but only if you want to receive copies of ALL the user's email. Through Exchange, there's no way that I know of to only forward "some" mail. To enable this, open Exchange Administrator, then go to the mailbox that'll be monitored. Double-click on it to open the mailbox properties, then select the Delivery Options tab. At the bottom of this tab is an option to set up an alternate recipient.

If you're only wanting to get copies of messages from certain senders, the best way to do it is to set up an "Inbox" rule through your mail client software on the user's PC. Depending on the client software you're using, it shouldn't betoo hard to walk through the setup, but just make sure you specify that you're sent a "COPY", not the original email message.

Hope this helps.
