Many of our users want this functionality, so I'm looking for a solution. In Groupwise, we could look at the properties of a sent item and see data about when each recipient received, opened, and deleted an email.

One area that Groupwise undeniably beats Exchange/Outlook is the sent items tracking. In the last 2 weeks, we've migrated from Groupwise 7 to Outlook 2007 (Exchange Server 2007 as well).

Contact your IT department to see if they can stop the forwarding.I'm the system administrator. If you are in a corporate environment, your email administrator may have set forwarding on the server end. I do not have any rules set, but my email is still forwarding to another address. Provide a name for the rule, then complete the conditions on which you want your rule to apply.Select the type of client you wish the rule to apply to (Exchange, IMAP, POP3, or Outgoing).Select the “Home” tab, then choose “ Rules” > “ Edit Rules“.Check “ Run this rule now on messages already in Inbox” (rarely used) if you would like Outlook to forward everything that is already in your Inbox. Check the box for “ Turn on this rule” if you would like Outlook to start forwarding messages now. Under “ Specify a name for this rule“, give your rule a name.Select any exceptions you would like to apply to this rule and select “ Next“. You can also just type the full email addresses in the “ To” field. Search for the email address(es) to which you would like to forward your mail. This will open the “ Rule Address” window with the address book.In the lower pane, click the “ people or distribution list” or “ people or public group” link. This option might say “ forward it to people or public group” on certain versions. Check “ forward it to people or distribution list“.You will get a message that says “ This rule will be applied to every message you receive. If you want all your messages to be forwarded, leave everything unchecked. If you wish to only forward certain messages, you can select conditions for each message that gets forwarded.Select under “ Start from a template or from a blank rule” select “ Check messages when they arrive“, and click “ Next“.From the “ E-mail Rules” tab, choose “ New Rule…“.

Note: If you are not using Outlook while connected to a Microsoft Exchange Server or Office 365 environment of connected to an account, you will need to leave Outlook running on a computer in order for forwarding to work.
