I agree, but that is how it is, and if there are 1000 domains, and say only 5 users per domain, you are looking at asking 5000+ people to change their email client settings.
Even still, ASSP should be able to handle it with no trouble, the email server does now, with the load of POP and IMAP, and this is significant hardware no less.
