<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have an ex-user whose mailbox we are holding on to for some kind of retention policy reasons. He is receiving email in his personal gmail account forwarded from this mailbox. I did a test where I sent his mailbox on our server a message and he replied back via his gmail confirming he got it. There is no forwarding set in the delivery options for the mailbox. I've logged onto the account via OWA and deleted all rules. There are no transport rules doing this.<br />
<br />
I tried using the &quot;Message Tracking&quot; and &quot;Tracking Log Explorer&quot; tools but for some reason I can't really figure it out. It's not working. I'm not getting any results. I'm guessing I'm using it wrong.<br />
<br />
As far as I can tell there is no reason why it should be getting forwarded. Any other ideas where this may be set?<br />

Outlook

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.
