Mail forwarding. The object could not be found
HI There ,
I have Small Business Server 2008, Exchange Server 2007. I am trying to forward emails to different user. I can
do this manually with no problem. But when I try to do with EMS for ONE PTICULAR
(User 1)
user it give me error:
[PS] C:\Windows\System32>Set-Mailbox -DeliverToMailboxAndForward $true -Forwardi
ngAddress 'contoso.local/MyBusiness/Users/SBSUsers/User 1'
-Identity
'contoso.local/MyBusiness/Users/SBSUsers/User 2'
Object "contoso.local/MyBusiness/Users/SBSUsers/User 1" could not b
e found. Please make sure that it was spelled correctly or specify a different
object.
At line:1 char:1
+ S <<<< et-Mailbox -DeliverToMailboxAndForward $true -ForwardingAddress 'contoso.local/MyBusiness/Users/SBSUsers/User 1' -Identity 'contoso.local/MyBusiness/Users/SBSUsers/User 2'
All the users are in the same directory OU and Container. I do not get any error when I try other user than User 1. I have problem only when I try
User 1.
I want to forward User 2 e mails to User 1 via EMS.
Thanks Guys

For the forwardingaddress, enter the SMTP address of USer1 instead and see if that works.

Hi,
Could you please try this command?
Set-mailbox –Identity User2 –DeliverToMailboxAndForward $true –ForwardingAddress
User1@domain.com
More information:
Set-Mailbox
Then run the below commands to check the result.
$1=Get-mailbox –Identity user2
$2=$1.FrowardingAddress
$2
The result should like this
ISdelete
: False
Rdn: CN=user2
…

If the syntax is not correct, you could go SBS forum.
