We're on Exchange 2003 and I have some questions about recipient policies, something I've never been entirely comfortable with as I've never been sure at what point clicking OK/Apply will go off and generate/alter the email addresses of everyone in our company.
So, I have a "Default Policy" with a filter of "(mailnickname=*)" which has and X400 type, and an SMTP type of @ourdomain.com If I create a new user called Joe Bloggs, we set the alias to Joe Bloggs (it default to JoeBloggs) and the account is created with an SMTP address of "JoeBloggs<at>ourdomain.com" which we then have to manually change to joe.bloggs<at>ourdomain.com. Can I set policies to: a) Default the Exchange alias to Joe Bloggs rather than JoeBloggs b) Default the SMTP address generated to joe.bloggs<at>ourdomain.com without Exchange modifying/generating additional addresses for any existing accounts?
