How do I preserve the "From" and "Subject" info when using an agent to foward mail to an outside address?
I'd like to be able to forward a copy of all incoming email to an external email address AND preserve the "From" and "Subject" information. I have an agent working and it is successfully forwarding the email, but each mail item is from "me" with a blank "subject".
If you run it using agent, the agent signer (Person who saved the agent) becomes the sender for any such forwarded mails. So there is not exactly a straight forward way to do it using agent. But for blank subject that can be avoided.. And it depends upon how you set the agent.. If it is using SImple actions, then click on More button next to subject field this will open another dialog where you can set text or formula.. For Subject field set formula to Subject.. THis is the name of the field that is being used in you mail to show subject.
The above soln does have one handicap, that is when you set forwarding address in person doc.. the mail is no more stored in your lotus notes mail db, it is routed to your alt address. If you need to setup a copy in your notes db and as well forward it to alt email..
