Exchange Redirect in Messagetrace
Hi All,
Recently i had a call from a Collegue. He had the following Scenario:
An Email was redirected via Exchange Transport Rule (ETR)
Something similar to this one
When you now look at the Messagetrace you will see Events like that:
Receive
Transport Rule
Redirect
Fail
Drop
He was a little concerned about the Fail and Drop Events. But that's absolutely fine. Redirect means, the Mail will not reach the orginal Recipient - therefore Fail and Drop.
Get-MessageTrace -StartDate (get-date).AddDays(-4) -EndDate (get-date) -RecipientAddress m.muster@icewolf.ch | where {$_.subject "Test Redirect"}
Get-MessageTrace -StartDate (get-date).AddDays(-4) -EndDate (get-date) -RecipientAddress m.muster@icewolf.ch | where {$_.subject -eq "Test Redirect"} | Get-MessageTraceDetail | Sort-Object date | fl
If you check Messagetrace for the Redirection Address you will see the delivery Event.
Get-MessageTrace -StartDate (get-date).AddDays(-4) -EndDate (get-date) -RecipientAddress andres.bohren@gmail.com
Get-MessageTrace -StartDate (get-date).AddDays(-4) -EndDate (get-date) -RecipientAddress andres.bohren@gmail.com | Get-MessageTraceDetail | Sort-Object Date
If you look at the details you see the Send External 250 ok
Get-MessageTrace -StartDate (get-date).AddDays(-4) -EndDate (get-date) -RecipientAddress andres.bohren@gmail.com | Get-MessageTraceDetail | Sort-Object Date | fl
