I know you can do that.

Unfortunatelym nultiple domains with namespaces and servers is the political
reality here and at many other large universities. We actually host 10 or 15
smtp domains on our exchange boxes in our dept. But the reality is that
there are about 15 other smtp domains out there in our enterprise, each in
their own windows domain with their own exchange servers.

Don't tell me about best practices. Tell the people who run this place.

You don't need to have different domains to be able to support multiple SMTP
namespaces. You can do it all with one AD domain and many recipient policies
in Exchange, each recipient policy defining a different SMTP domain name.

You need to find some Exchange hosting whitepapers.

That the FE/BE must be in the same domain is well-documented and makes sense
from a single-domain email namespace design concept.

But what about the situation where we want ONE OWA interface to be the FE
for, say, ten BE machines in different domains (and different email
namespaces). Where we can tell users, jut go to
https://owa.usf.edu/exchange/joebob and they will be routed to their
appropriate BE server.

MS docs state that the FE does an AD lookup of the user to find their home
server and route the user to it. In that case I fail to see why that
couldn't be done for a user in ANY domain in the forest. That info is all in
the GC.

But my question is, what approaches has anyone taken in this case to provide
a single OWA entry point?

FE/BE servers must be in the same domain (see page 16 of the MS whitepaper
Echange 2000 Front-end and Back-end Topology").
