Email router does not process emails forwarded from exchange.

Posted on by 185

We have a support@... mailbox that is being monitored by the Dynamics Email Router to bring email into a support queue. This part is currently working fine.

When an employee leaves the company, we like to forward any incoming emails to a generic support@... email address. This is done by setting the forwarding address in the user's mailflow settings in the management console.

The problem seems to be that exchange ignores these forwarded emails so they never appear in the queue.

I have tried to solve this by configuring a forwarding inbox in the email router config tool. When switching logging on, this appears to be progress but because the sender is external to the company, we get the error message "E-mails for address {email address} in forward mailbox could not be processed as the e-mail address is not associated with any approved forward mailbox user or queue record in CRM.". As far as I can tell, this feature is for when an email is forwarded as an attachment.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

    you can make a rule in that user inbox to forward mails to support inbox , then support inbox automatically will add them to support queue.

    but the problem is your support queue in crm will be fill with all rubbish emails receives to that user.

    A forward is set up on the users mailbox and the users email arrives in the support@... mailbox as I expect.

    The problem is, while the router imports all direct emails, the forwarded emails are ignored.

    I'm happy with all the users junk coming into the support queue, we have a co-ordinator who's role it is to handle and organise this queue.

    If you are running Exchange 2007 or newer it is possible to re-address the emails before the email router receives them. We do this to handle emails that customers BCC to us so that the Email Router will handle it.

    Just search TechNet for "Interception and Redirection of Messages Using Transport Rules or Journaling"

    Hope this helps.
