Interesting. I work with three University clients. They all have multiple EDU names. That being said - they've been around a LONG time. :)

Their policy is one .edu per organization however there are some grandfathering rules prior to 2001 or something. Large donor in 2008 = name change but is *after* the single name policy. I think they allow a 1-2 year transition but somehow we talked them into 3. Can't talk them into 4 as of yet. .edu are their own beasts since they're all run by EDUCAUSE. From: Michael B.

Good general idea though, I know some people there. I'll see if they have any options since they're the ones forcing the retirement of the old domain. From: Michael B.

I realize this isn't an Exchange solution, but it's an EASY solution: transfer the domain to GoDaddy and use their built-in catchall solution. Regards, Michael B.

The domain chicagogsb.edu is going away in November and 40% of inbound mail is still addressed there. We want to send a reply back to everyone sending to that domain telling them to update their address books, etc with the new domain. I've researched this and the only way I can come up with is to have a hub transport rule that BCC's another mailbox where there's an Outlook reply telling them to please send to u...@chicagobooth.edu<mailto:u...@chicagobooth.edu> instead of u...@chicagogsb.edu<mailto:u...@chicagogsb.edu>. Have the rule delete the message but someone would have to log into that mailbox and purge those deleted messages. Thoughts on other ways to accomplish this?
