I want all mail addressed to certain mailboxes forwarded or redirected automatically to a single specified account. I gather there is a facility called Inbox Assistant, but it does not show up on the Tools menu. Can anyone advise?
 
It's also called the "Out of the Office Assistant" depending on your Outlook version, and you can also do it via the Rules Wizard - and yes, they are off of the Tools menu - at least for every rev of Outlook that I've worked with.

If you have access to the Exchange Administrator program and can configure the Exchange server for your site, you could also setup delegates to receive copies of messages automatically.

Your choice, although I would advise research before commiting to an option, Chad Stiller, MCSE

HI!

What version of Exchange do you use?
What is the purpose, are you trying to do Journaling of the emails?

In Exchange Administrator (ver 5.5), you can use the Mailbox Properties tabs to configure another mailbox to receive copy of messages as mentioned above.
However it is not called "Delegates" there but something else.
I think it is in the "Delivery" tab.

Delegates are configured with the Outlook client on the workstation.

There are other options, if you're looking for journaling:
