Hello, how can I check which users are using a particular additional SMTP e-mail address, like for example I want to know which users are using staff@domain.com as an additional SMTP. I want to convert the e-mail to a full mailbox and therefore I want to know which users will be affected.

Hi, Which version of exchange is it..since for exchange 2007 you can try get-mailboxstatistic, but for exchange 2003 it will be more complicated(ldifde might help). Do let us know if more info is required, also have a look into this article: http://www.powershellcommunity.org/Forums/tabid/54/aff/3/aft/5582/afv/topic/afpg/1/Default.aspxRipu Daman Mina | MCSE 2003 & MCSA Messaging

Send mail and than track that message. To confirm if the E-mail address exists use Delivery reciept for sending mail.

It is Exchange 2010, by the way what will happen if I do not care about it and create an additional mailbox with the same e-mail address. Will those users who have the same address as an additional SMTP address still receive the e-mails ?

Set the search to "proxyaddresses=smtp:staff@domain.com" and the single AD object using that address will be returned. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

good this will be useful as I will find all the users using the additional smtp address at once

If there are 2 does this mean that only 1 of them receives the e-mails or they can both receive the same e-mails at the same time by using the same additional smtp e-mail ?

There cannot be two without generating an error when mail is delivered to that address. If you want multiple mailboxes to receive the same message then assign the SMTP address to a mail-enabled distribution group and make the mailboxes members of the DL. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP
