When you add new SMTP address for that user, make it primary and remove the old address. You can manualy add any address you want @xyz.com and it would work. I have several different once to my name, because people can't spell it, so i make the eazy address names for myself. -----Original Message----- From: Troy Armour [mailto:troy@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 1:39 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Primary Email Address http://www.MSExchange.org/ Hi everyone i am having a problem on an EXchange 2000 server-i need to change someone's email address from elaine@xxxxxxx to elainesmith@xxxxxxx due to spam. my problem is that even though i set up the address in the users properties and set the new address as the Primary one-it reverts back to the address in the form of the login@xxxxxxx . does anyone know what im doing wrong? thanks in advance troy ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSExchange.org Discussion List as: vadim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub')
