The difference between Forwarding and Redirecting has nothing to do with Zimbra, they are standard email delivery conventions used by all email systems and clients.cuongpv22 wrote:Hi all .

If John sends and email to me, and I Forward it to Steve, when Steve looks at the email it looks like it came from me.
If instead I Redirect that email to Steve, when Steve reads it it will look like it came from John, not me.
One practical application of this is for Spam learning; when you hit the Spam button in Zimbra sure you see the message gets moved to your Junk folder, but behind the scenes that email is Redirected to a spam training mailbox. If the message were instead Forwarded, the spam system would learn that you are the spam source, instead of the original sender!
Hope that helps,
Mark

You can't create a filter rule that does forwarding. You can manually forward individual messages by right-clicking on them and choosing "Forward".cuongpv22 wrote:Thanks Mark, do u know, how to config forward mail in filter rule on webmail of zimbra ?

You can from the Admin Console however create a rule to forward all of the user's email to another address if you wish.
