Hi- I have an Windows 2003 Server Standard edition SP2 running Exchange 03. We have one AD domain on site but multiple email domains delivered to the exchange server. The default is @domain1.com and we use userID@domain1.com for most of our users and it works just fine. We currently have a few users who use @domain2 as their default email addresses and mail gets routed in and out correctly with @domain2 being their default address in Active Directory but their login domain @domain1. My problem is that when I create new users to use @domain1 as their login domainand domain2 as their primary email address the system for some reason changes them back to @domain1. But there are people who currently use domain2. I have tried coping users who currentlyuse domain2 but that doesn't work. Its almost like its changing it a few minutes after I make the change. It lets me change their primary address and apply it and close the AD user properties but after a few minutes I open User/Properties and it has changed back the email address to @domain1. I have tried this multiple times with no luck and its starting to be an issue as we are hiring new people to work for domain2. Please help!!!

Hi, This is cause by the recipient policy (and it works as designed). Either create a new recipient policy for the users with domain2 addresses or uncheck the "apply addresses according to recipient policy" on the user properties. Leif
