Adding a second domain to exchange 2007
Hi, My first organisation is up and running and everything is working ok. My second domain's hosting has just run out and while moving the website across has been no problem, I am a bit stuck on how I move the email across to my server. I would like to know (preferably with a step by step guide - I find technet articles aren't always helpful for the learner, as they assume a certain level of knowledge) how I prep my server to receive and sendemail for a second domain. I have made MX records, and ALL of the mail from my server goes through a smart host. I guess I would like to know how I would go about setting up a receive connector (my current receive connectors are the default exchange ones) and how I go about setting it up so that I can send from person@myseconddomain.com and any replies to that domain get through to the right account on my server. I assume i need to set up an alias on a myfirstdomain.com account? Thanks

Hello, You need to configure second domain as an accepted domain in Exchange 2007 to receive emails for it. Reference: Configure Exchange 2007 to Receive E-Mail for other Domains http://www.petri.co.il/configure-exchange-2007-recieve-email-other-domains.htm To assign email addresses to the users of second domain in your environment, you need to create an email address policy.

I am running into a problem. I have done the above. I have added the domain. I have added the policy. I can send from the new domain to my hotmail address, but I cannot send to the new domain. I get the following error: host mail.domainB.com [IP ADDRESS] said: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay (in reply to RCPT TO command) Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance! :-)

Run the command: Get-AcceptedDomain | fl Is the domain there? What is its "DomainType"? Do you have a recipient with the SMTP address to which the message is attached? -- Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems." .
