Steve,
The
issue is probably related to your recipient policies. Try
this:
Start
the Exchange System Manager-->Recipients-->Recipient Policies. There will
probably be two policies, one based on your new (I assume new) Exchange 2000
install and one based on your existing site. Open whichever
is your highest priority and click the E-Mail Addresses Tab (Policy). The
uppercase BOLD SMTP is the primary SMTP that's being stamped on your
AD Objects. See if you can set your [EMAIL PROTECTED] as
primary. If not, it's time to run ADSI edit.
Start
ADSI Edit and go to CN=Configuration, DC=***,DC=*** -->CN=Services-->CN=MS
Exchange-->CN=DomainName-->CN=Recipient Polices.
Open
the offending policy Under Property to View, select GatewayProxy. You'll see the
address types and domain names. I *believe* you'll want to highlight the 'bad'
SMTP and intentionally edit it wrong. Make it read [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED]. This should make the
recipient policy in Exchange System Manager more-editable and you can set the
SMTP you really want as primary.
If I
can dig up the article I received from MS PSS, I'll post the Q# on the list.
Otherwise, I thing you should be pretty close.
Good
luck.
