Web links in outlook web access are incorrect.
We have a 2003 server running Exchange 2003 and whenever a web link is sent via Outlook Web Access our domain gets appended as a prefix to the URL.
For example if I sent a link to www.disney.com, when you click on it it takes you to
https://schoolname.k12.pa.us/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.disney.com
How can I fix this? I'm thinking it's probably an easy fix I just don't know where to look or what to change.
Thanks!

When someone clicks on the url in the message it doesn't work.
Everyone has to copy the URL from the message and paste it into their browser.
Any fix?

It should work - that is the point.
What happens when you click on the link?

Mestha,
When it doesn't work, it actually sends people to:
https://schoolname.k12.pa.us/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.disney.com
It doesn't take the prefix away and therefore doesn't work.
However I just tried it and it's fine... so maybe it's just a few teachers or something that are having this issue for some reason.
Thanks, I'll have to look into this more.

is that a bad thing? you should still see the intended web site when you click on the link, don't you?
doing it like that means that your email is less likely to be treated as spam or phishing, and you can track clicks on emails through the web app.
Cheers.
