Greetings,

This is the first time we have used Exchange at our company. Up until now, we've used Lotus, but the powers that be started us on the Sharepoint path, so now we're going to move to Exchange 2007 as well.

We have a Complex Exchange Environment and that is proving to be somewhat of an annoyance, two forests along with a resource forest, but what I am currently attempting to figure out is this:

Can an Edge Server (or Hub Transport) be used to make this simple determination:

Email from user@domain.com comes in.
Server allows domain.com, checks the username
Username does not exsist in Exchange, mail is NOT deleted, or bounced. Instead:
Server relays the message to a different mail server

The reason we need this functionality is to allow some of our staff to be moved over time as we test / build into the production environment.

Once it's all said and done Lotus will disappear completely, but for now, this is what I am faced with. Either I'm blind, or the GUI does not give you this option. Is there a cmdlet that allows advanced filtering?

Thanks!

For anyone that's read this post and wonders. I found a solution:

Change your domain from authoratative to local relay, then set up a send connector to point to your other mail server.

Make sure your other server allows mail relaying from the Exchange server.

It was much simpler in Exchange 2003... Oh well, this isn't all that hard once you know how to do it.
