Maybe this is a silly question."n***@abc.com" our domain name is "abc" we are in the process of changing all this Our company name is going to be "xyz" and our website is going to be "xyz.com" and we want to have our email become "n***@xyz.com" For the next few months though we want each persons outlook email to be configured with 2 mailboxes "m***@abc.com" and "m***@xyz.com" so that it stays completely seperate until almost no one sends mail to "abc.com" anymore at which time we will remove the abc.com. What I need to know is how to add xyz.com to our exchange server so I can set up emails with xyz.com and configure everyones outlook with xyz.com. (we are not changing the domain ever or until I quit) Any help would be great. Thank you Mell It'd make sense to keep single user account & mailbox, it can continue to
receive email for both domains till as long as you want. If that's what you want to do, you need to add xyz.com to the default Recipient Policy and set it as default. Leave the old domain. This will avoid the hassle of everyone having 2 separate mailboxes (and accounts) and having users setup the second mailbox as additional mailbox in their Outlook profiles. If you do want to create separate mailboxes, you would have to create a new Recipient Policy and pick up on the accounts that need xyz.com accounts. -- Show quoteBharat Suneja MVP - Exchange www.zenprise.com blog: www.suneja.com/blog ----------------------------------------- "Ky IT Guy" <kyit***@gmail.com> wrote in message news:uvmqkOPWGHA.3972@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > Our company name is "abc" our website is "abc.com" or email is > "n***@abc.com" our domain name is "abc" we are in the process of changing > all > this Our company name is going to be "xyz" and our website is going to be > "xyz.com" and we want to have our email become "n***@xyz.com" For the next > few > months though we want each persons outlook email to be configured with 2 > mailboxes "m***@abc.com" and "m***@xyz.com" so that it stays completely > seperate > until almost no one sends mail to "abc.com" anymore at which time we will > remove the abc.com. > > What I need to know is how to add xyz.com to our exchange server so I can > set up emails with xyz.com and configure everyones outlook with xyz.com. > (we > are not > changing the domain ever or until I quit) > > Any help would be great. > > Thank you > Mell > > > Dear Ky,
