Outlook 2003 Exchange 2003 rules do not work

[Per Lund]

Hi folks.

I have been scanning through several numbers of messages concerning the
problem with Outlook 2003 rules not working together with Small Business
Server 2003 (Exchange 2003). I have a standard network solution set up with
the SBS2003 and 15 clients (Win98, Win XP Home and Win XP Pro).

My problem is that the Rules set up by the Rules Wizard in Outlook 2003 only
works when the client is logged into the software. I would like the Rules
to work with redirecting email from one client to an external email address
and so on, without having the client logged into the network.

It seems that there is no good answers to the problem.

Could the problem be that the clients MUST BE Win XP Pro?

Or is there any other good suggestions?

Client side rules require you to log in without for the rules to run, server
side rules do not. You can't force rules to be server side...
