I'm trying to set up an Exchange 5.5 Server.  I'll use this server to test
Migration to Active Directory and Exchange 2003.  (Yes, I'm finally getting
around to it.)  The 5.5 server I've set up is running in a virtual machine.
I also have a PDC and XP Client running on the same server in virtual
machines.  I have two (possibly related) issues with the Exchange Server.

1) The machine is adtex.ucdavis.edu.  When I create a mailbox the return
address it creates for it is [EMAIL PROTECTED]  I have not been
able to find out why it is choosing .com instead of .edu.  How can this be
corrected?

2) I can send a message from the exchange server to @yahoo.com addresses but
I cannot send mail to @ucdavis.edu addresses.  I'm wondering if this is
related to the above problem?  Perhaps my machine is advertising itself as
adtex.ucdavis.com instead of .edu and the campus mail system thinks I'm a
spammer?  I would think the campus mail system would be checking on IP
address rather than machine name.  The error I get is

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

      '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' on 3/7/2006 3:56 PM

            Unable to deliver the message due to a communications failure

        The MTS-ID of the original message is: c=US;a=
;p=UCDavis;l=ADTEX-060307235531Z-4

Extra detail:

- The machine adtex.ucdavis.edu is not yet registered in DNS but I wouldn't
think that would be required to send mail.  I know it can't receive mail.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
