strange behaviour using filter and redirect email option... (almost a bug?)

[Michael REMY]

hi !

i just test the filter with Redirect option from a zimbra account email to an external (i.e @orange) email account.

i do that : redirect all email from @an_zimbra_account to my personal @orange.fr account (no special link or any synch with zimbra, just a full personal account)

there are 3 strange behaviours :
- first, in the external email box, i can't see that the mail have been transfered to me from the acccount zimbra. . So i think the original destinataire is really me (or it is false)
- from the redirect box, i have no email trace like the foward feature button (folder of send email is empty of redirect emails)
- the calendar notificcation are also redirect ! so in my orange email, i can accept or not the appointment even if i not invited !

so, normal ?

That's the expected behavior of the redirect filter action, i.e. the original MIME message is redirected unmodified.

Again this is expected. Redirected messages are not saved in Sent folder.

Calendar notification email contains an ics file attachment which is recognized by most email clients. That's the reason you might be seeing Accept/Decline buttons in the other email client. If you click Accept in your @orange account, it would not be reflected in your Zimbra account.
