Problems with forwarding e-mail in the out of office assistant

[Eurovet Animal Health]

Hello,

Since a shot while we have the following problem:

The email adres in the Out of Office assitant does not forward e-mails to
the recipient that is filled in the "forward to" field if the recipient is
an external e-mail (outside of the company).
For example, if I go on vacation or business and I want to receive all my
mails that is send to my e-mail adress at my work on my hotmail account.
This doesn't work anymore. Before it did work. We don't know what happened
since than.

Details:
Our Server is Windows NT4.0 SP6a
Our server is Microsoft Exchange Server v5.5 SP4
Our outlook version is 98.

If somebody knows what can be our problem, please mail us at:
mailto:aut...@eurovet-ah.com
Thanks in advance,

Someone may call me on this, but I beleive you should only be able to
forward to an internal address as part of the Out of Office assistant. Of
course, to easily get around this, define an external receipient in the
Admin tool (Internal name with an external SMTP address), and link it to the
Out of Office assistant.
