I currently work with Windows SBS 2003 with Exchange 2003 SP2 - I would like to know if it is possible to set up rules in exchange that will check the subject of outgoing mails and depending on the "value/information" in the subject will move the mails to a specified folder. I know this is possible from outlook but I would like to implement these rules through out the whole organisation.

Example:

I want to move all outgoing mails with job number "1234" in the subject to a specific public folder no matter which user sent the mail

I think there are tools to plug into exchange to do that, but I am not aware that Exchange does this out of the box.

You might try using journaling, public folder(s), and rules to handle messages.

Enable journaling on your message stores and point this to a new mail enabled account within AD. Then open outlook as the new user and create rules to move messages to the public folder and to delete the moved messages from the mailbox (to keep the size down).

Then give appropriate access to the public folder...

maybe that will help
