I have setup a mailbox in Exchange 2010. &nbsp;On the mailbox I have set a rule to forward all emails to a DL. &nbsp;The DL is mail-enabled and has other user mailboxes and contacts for iPhone text messaging addresses (e.g. 202-123-4567@vtext.com) as members. &nbsp;When i send an email to the new mailbox, it does forward the emails to the user mailboxes in the list, but not to the text messaging addresses. &nbsp;When i send an email directly to the DL, user mailboxes get the email and the iPhones get the text messages. &nbsp;Is there some limitation on Exchange that prevents text messages from being forwarded from a mailbox to a DL when it comes to text addresses?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance,<br />
