    Ok, here's the problem,

    I'm migrating users from old exchange 5.5 server and domain to new Exchange 2K server and domain. I need some way of redirecting/Integrating the old domains email to the new domain.

    Note: 2 Email domains are not on same ISP - Indigo /ESAT Net

    Is there a quick and easy way to do this through smtp connectors or by using some sort of bridgehead.

    Here hoping!

    :confused:

    What you have to do is go into the Exchange System Manager on the Exchange 2000 Server, then go into Recipients -> Recipient Policy. Right click on Default Policy and select properties.

    Go into the email address (policy) and add a SMTP Address for the domain in the format @domainname.com. When you apply that it'll ask you if you want to apply the new domain to all existing users, if you click yes each user will have two email addresses.

    After that you'll have to modify the MX record for your old domain to point to your Exch 2000 server.
