I don't remember a "redirect" rule in Outlook 2000.  I have Outlook

no redirect rule.

It's there when the mailbox is on Exchange. It lies between actions "forward it to people or distribution list as an attachment" and "have server reply using a specific message".

Thanks for the info. At work with Exchange, I only have a couple rules so haven't grown accustomed to what additional rules might be available when you use Exchange.

So why would Exchange be stripping out headers when it simply redirects incoming e-mails to another account (in this case, an external SMTP server). Hmm, has it already been converted to the proprietary format used by Outlook? Or is it still in its raw state when sitting in the mailbox? Presumably it would also use the DATA command to send the mail to the SMTP server so it wouldn't care about what is in the headers (since that is really part of the body separated by a blank line) to deliver the mail because it would use the RCPT-TO command to the SMTP server. It's been awhile since I used a forwarding service but I recall that the To, Cc, and other headers were left intact.
