I have been trying to set up a rule to forward mail when
it enters my Inbox to a pager I have purchased.
I have e-mail being sent to my fpic.com e-mail address and
I want to forward that mail to my pager.
Here is where I am :
1. If I forward mail manually, typing in pager address I
receive a delivery notification and it comes through to
pager.
2. If I forward mail manually, selecting pager address
from contact I have set up, I receive a delivery
notification and it come through to pager.
3. If I set up a rule to forward the mail to the pager
address via contact I have set up, I can see that the rule
is working and the e-mail is in the sent folder, but I
never receive a delivery notification and it never comes
through to my pager.
Can anyone help me in trying to debug what is happening
when the rule is sending out the e-mail vs my sending it
manually that makes it fail.
Thanks,
Peggy

What kind of mail server? If it's Exchange, the administrator is probably
blocking automatic forwarding to external addresses.
