Windows Server - SBS2008 - email

Asked By jdc

Just installed my first SBS2008.  Pretty cool so far.

Question:
Is there any additional configuration on the Server to receive email other
than adding the Domain to Accepted Domains?  I need to support 3 mail domains
on this server, all 3 have A Records for mail.domain.com that point to the
SBS2008 server IP.

Also, I notice that when I create a user, only the default domain is added
to the users email addresses, as opposed to SBS2003 which added all the
domains.  Is this by design, or have I not added domains correctly.

This article reads, as if you can only SEND email using the domain name from
the Primary domain.  Am I to understand that if I setup domainA.com and
domainB.com and set domainA as my primary, then all users will send with
domainA.com as a replyto?  Or can I set a default email address in each users
email addresses.

I think this is what you want...

If you want various users to have different Reply-To (primary) =
addresses, you can create filters with multiple policies appropriately =
filtering that specific policy for those users.

The seandaniel.com blog helps, however
changing domain1.com back to the primary is not so easy

and took a bit of playing around with until
Exchange Management Console and
SBS 2008 placed domain1.com back into the 1st priority

and showed
SBS 2008,
Users and Groups,
Users,
Add a new user account, with the
E-mail address @domain1.com.

Another blog suggested simply adding domain1.com,

domain2.com, domain3.com and domain4.com into the
Exchange Management Console
Organization Configuration
Accepted Domains.

Then simply add domain2.com, domain3.com and domain4.com

into the
Exchange Management Console
Organization Configuration
E-mail Address Policies
Default Policy which already has domain1.com.
-This failed and did not work.

I have now added domain2.com, domain3.com and

domain4.com's mailboxes into
Exchange Management Console,
Recipient Configurtaion,
Mailbox,
New Mailbox...

This only allows an email address of

infoatdomain2.com@domain1.com.
I have added an extra SMTP in E-Mail Address of

info@domain2.com, however Microsoft Outlook 2010 will not

allow connecting to DOMAINinfoatdomain2.com@domain1.com

and password to connect when opening Microsoft Outlook

2010.
Also, the emal box in Microsoft Outlook 2010 shows the

email box infoatdomain2.com@domain1.com.
Really, it should simply show info@domain2.com and

myname@domain2.com.
