HI everyone,

How to setup exchange with multi-back end servers,(i.e. multi mailbox
storage servers), where does the mail record should point to?  They are all
using the same domain (e.g. x**@abc.com), and also, when setting up users on
outlook, do we have to  know which server their mailbox are on?(i.e. point to
the right exchange server?)  I am running exchange 2003.

Cheers

- When users use Outlook, they will need to know their mail server name in
order to create their Outlook profiles.
- Not sure what you meant by "maril record should point to" - did you mean
the MX record in your external DNS zone? If yes, that typically points to
either a SMTP host in a perimeter network (DMZ), or an Exchange bridgehead
that handles outbound/inbound mail.

If you don't have either, you can point it to the A record of any Exchange
server. The receiving Exchange server will deliver the messages based on AD
lookups.
