Thanks Michael. Perhaps I'm not being too clear, these aren't in any way reserved/system smtp addresses, they are 110% names of department specific public folders with internal project names, and adfind.exe confirms they belong to specific public folders. If I mail-enable them it doesn't appea

I don't know which addresses you have, so I can't make really good decisions about that; but Exchange does use email for PF replication and has quite a number of reserved SMTP addresses. That being said, someone made a really good suggestion (last week? Two weeks ago?) - mail-enable and then sw

You don't actually need two physical boxes. You can use HyperV to put the CAS and the Mailbox server on the same physical box. If you are building a DAG then you will have Windows Server Enterprise (because you need that for a DAG) so that allows you to run 4 instances of Windows Server on the o
