Auto forwarding to external email addresses is blocked/disabled by MS Outlook
Exchange as a default on installation.

Our business model requires auto-forwarding to home email addresses out of
business hours for certain topics e.g H&S issues.

Our server admin team does not know where to find the enable option under
the server's admin function.

Could anyone please point them in the right direction?

Many thanks
 
On your Exchange Server computer, open System Manager, go to 'Global
settings|Internet Message Formats|Default|Properties|Advanced tab' and add a
checkmark to the "Allow automatic forwards" checkbox.

Automatic replies and automatic forwards to Internet recipients are disabled
in Exchange 2000 Server and in Exchange Server 2003
