For [2] you use send connectors. Search on “new-sendconnector” and you’ll find everything you need to know. If you want theory, search also on “sharing smtp address spaces in exchange”.

Doesn’t surprise me. I already have ILM and Quest implemented for other A/D sync related activities for some other domain related stuff (just not mail routing) 2. So I would like to keep it native to Exchange if possible. My mail routing is way to complex as it is so I am looking to make it easier if possible. I just can’t figure out how to do it. What I would like it to do is this. All inbound mail to a.com is Handled by MAILServerA. There are local user on MailserverA. But if an email comes into us...@a.com<mailto:us...@a.com> and his/her mailbox is on Mailserverb, I want the mail to go directly to B, the same for us...@a.com<mailto:us...@a.com> if they are on MailserverC, etc, etc, and then of course there are the us...@a.com<mailto:us...@a.com> that will remain on different mail platforms, so routing should be able to determine that as well and send it via the correct connector to the relay server for them. Routing the Namespace to 1 different relay server is easy enough to accomplish, going to multiples has not been any fun. See I was spoiled by Domino. I have all the users in one addressbook, they all have their primary mail server listed, and notes just hands the message off to that mail server (regardless of the A/D they are a member of). -Mike From: Michael B.

Quest and NetWrix both sell others. I would suggest that you need a requirements analysis to determine exactly WHAT you need. ☺ [2] If Exchange or something like postfix are the “masters of all domains” then yes, it’s pretty easy to do. I can’t speak for Notes/Groupwise. Regards, Michael B. Smith Consultant and Exchange MVP http://TheEssentialExchange.com From: Mike Tavares [mailto:miketava...@comcast.net] Sent: Sunday, June 19, 2011 2:18 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Route company.com to multiple internal Business Units I have a situation were the parent company (A.com) is running Exchange 2007 and has multiple BU’s units that are COMPLETELY separate A/D Forests (b.com, c.com, d.com, etc). Most of these Business units are running email systems other then Exchange (Mostly Lotus Notes) and are currently receiving emails via u...@a.com<mailto:u...@a.com>. All is good as I have 1 internal relay connector set up that if it doesn’t match on the exchange server it relays the message to a notes server and it handles the delivery to all of the other business units. Now the challenge comes that several of the BU’s are being forced to switch to exchange 2010 (new CRM solution requires it) and they want to keep using u...@a.com<mailto:u...@a.com> as their primary addresses. (I will still have 10 to 12 bu’s running Notes). So this brings up at least 2 questions. 1. Since these are completely separate A/D forests how do I get all of the users into my A/D so a.com at least knows how to accept mail for these users (way too many users and groups to consider doing it manually). 2. is it even possible to route a.com to multiple internal relays without causing a massive routing headaches for all involved? Any thoughts or suggestions on how to make this work would be appreciated. -Mike --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
