Copy emails required from Exchange (SBS 2003)
We look after a large network for a client and the Managing Director (Who is also a friend of mine) has asked me to route through to him a copy of ALL emails that an employee (Who is leaving) sends and recieves.
Is there a way through Exchange (SBS2003) to send a copy of all the email this particular employee sends and recieves to another email address. I appreciate this can be done at the client level (i.e. outlook 2003 rules) but he wants it done without knowledge.
Also - he has requested for me to send him a copy of this persons email for the last two months - again - is this possible and how.
Thanking you in advance

I'd be careful of the legalities of this... but that said, why not just grant him access to the user's inbox and let him open it and see what he has.

Thanks for that - I can see a couple of problems.
Firstly - this does not perclude them from deleting emails before the boss has seen them
Second - once emails have been sent they can be deleted and deleted again from the deleted email folder - thereby cirumventing my request.
(Out of interest - in case this is the only opinion expressed - how do I grant another use access to a users inbox and how do they make use of this permission at their client PC?)

thanks for the valuable info. before i accept your answers (which in a roundabout way will resolve the issue) can we go back to basics.
1) can you view ALL messages (regardless of user) within the exchange master console of SBS2003 or Exchange Console
2) can you put a forwarder (email address) on all incomming and outgoing mail (either globally or specific user name)
Thanks.
