Hello Team,

Please let me know if we can set an email forwarding on John.dave@Company portal .com mailbox to send external emails to one of individual Garry@amulindia.co.in

Exchange Online Mailbox: John.dave@Company portal .com
Our domain : Contoso.com
External domain: amulindia.co.in

Note: Step by step screenshots with GUI or powershell commands will be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

    Hi @GurudasSatardekar

    Yes, this requirement can be achieved.

    For GUI, this can be configured both in O365 admin page and EAC.

    In Microsoft 365 admin center > Users > Active users > Choose a user > Mail > Email forwarding > Manage email forwarding

    And the steps are similar in EAC, details can be seen here: Configure email forwarding for a mailbox in Exchange Online

    Or using powershell, Set-Mailbox: 

    Set-Mailbox -Identity "Douglas Kohn" -DeliverToMailboxAndForward $true -ForwardingSMTPAddress "douglaskohn.parents@fineartschool.net"

    This example delivers email to the mailbox of Douglas Kohn and also forwards all mail sent to Douglas Kohn to an external email address, douglaskohn.parents@fineartschool.net.
