Can I have a rule on a server to forward all mail from and to a certain account to another account? Without creating it on the client?
 
Sure

In AD users and abusers
Microsoft Exchange General tab
Under Delivery Options.

That will not do it!
First of all, that is user per user and will only forward INCOMING email.

But it is possible, but it will catch ALL email!.
BEFORE you would do that, are ALL your users aware of this!
The fact that you will be catching all their emails, and have the means to read it, is a breach of privacy, and illegal!
Make sure everyone is very aware of this, or you could find yourself in deep deep trouble!

Here are the steps, but be warned!
- Open System Manager
- Open Administrative Groups
- Open your Server
- Open First Storage Group
- Goto Mailbox Store, right-click it for Properties.

In General, you can set the Account that will receive ALL traffic, in and out. This is in the Field "Archive all messages sent or received..."

Again, remember it is ILLEGAL unless the users are aware and agree, even if it comes from the boss!
If you are forced to do it, get it in writing to cover yourself, just in case, or YOU can end up being charged!

If 'something' 'somewhere' gives 'some' error, expect random guesses or no replies at all. Please specify details.

Good catch

I was thinking in a smaller world
good catch mine would have been user by user with only incoming email.

And yes it is ILLEGAL
