RE: Looking for advice re HR Luser request
I concur with the DL suggestion. I have run into this issue, and it can be a headache. I solved it here in a somewhat small organization by using aliases for certain users and we did change the address people were sending resumes to, but as you can imagine, there was some swapping of messages which still needed to be done as some resumes went to the wrong individual... Force them somehow to use one address, I'm going to try that. -Original Message- From: Ray Zorz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2002 7:13 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Looking for advice re HR Luser request I had something similiar with about 50 different information type e-mail addresses that were published on a couple websites.

RE: Looking for advice re HR Luser request
What I find kinda weird was that HR didn't want to even see the resumes. But, regardless, maybe the company can designate various department heads (actually, probably the AA's) to receive them. Salesjobs, HRjobs, Techjobs, etc. @companyname.com. Hopefully they'll do that and actually tell the exchange admin. Since I'm unemployed, I've been sending out a buncha resumes. Amazing to me that companies put e-mail addresses out there, and I get errors that they're not active. Ironically, one was for a Exchange admin. -Original Message- From: Desiree Herrmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2002 8:43 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Looking for advice re HR Luser request I concur with the DL suggestion.

Title: RE: Looking for advice re HR Luser request Here's what I did for my HR dept. I set up a public folder for the HR dept and under that a folder for each type of resume they would get (we have 10 categories), i.e. HRjobs or ITjobs or Manufjobs, etc. Each folder has its corresponding smtp address that the department uses in its postings. The HR folder tree is restricted to allow access to only the HR personnel. You have to give the contributor permission to the default account in each folder so that anyone can post to the folder.

RE: Looking for advice re HR Luser request
Title: RE: Looking for advice re HR Luser request This idea still didn't fly. I think what they really want is for someone else to do their job, but this is what my boss wants to do: Use another domain for all the job posting email addresses, like nhrajobs.com or whatever (maybe LazyPeople.com - haha). Anyway, we would have our ISP set up an MX record in their DNS for this domain and point it to a server that has the SMTP service installed. So far, fine, but here's where I can't figure out if this will work or not. ... Once the mail hits the SMTP server, he wants whatever addresses we have set up to route to specific users in the nhra.com (Exchange). As far as I can tell, you can't set up users with the Microsoft SMTP service like you can with Exchange. So, I don't think this idea will work. If I am correct, is there some other (cheap or free) SMTP program that will do what he wants?

RE: Looking for advice re HR Luser request
This is not so much a suggestion but a rant about ignorant users who seem to think that computers are somehow magical and can Nike (Just Do It) all by themselves (and why is it that HR seems to be the worst affected by this disease?:)). Probably the easiest solution is to have a person in their department with access to the Exchange administrator and restricted access to the mailboxes of the HR department so that they can create the new email addresses as required. HR should be able to be trusted with this ;). I believe there are also utilities out there which will enable users to modify their own settings in a granular way. In fact I think our hosts at Sunbelt sell a couple of different products which do just this. Unfortunately I have not used any of them so i cannot give you any guidance in this matter. As for the suggestion below, about setting up their own email box! Unfortunately in many organizations this would be taken literally and before you know it every man and his dog is setting up their own email server and causing all sorts of chaos on your network. NEVER suggest to a user that they should do their own thing. Before you know it, you are being called to fight fires on equipment that you have never seen or configured when something out of the ordinary happens. If you say that you do not support their gear, you get blamed because you suggested that they set it up themselves. Or even worse your users get the idea that they can do without your services and you get invited to hit the track :) Of course this is based on my experiences at a large Government department that had a number of scientists who believed that the only way to get anything done was to do it themselves. The benefit was that we harnessed their energies in an advisory committee so that we could look at their suggestions and come up with solutions that were reasonably cost effective and didn't cause a major disruption. -Original Message- From: Sanborn, John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 27 March 2002 7:40 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Looking for advice re HR Luser request some thoughts in no particular odor ... - If they don't like the Exchange solutions you give them, then tell them to go setup their own email box ...
