Sounds like his userid and Exchange alias are now different, so he'll
need to log into OWA using DOMAIN\userid\alias format.
Domainname\JoeUserOld\JoeUser or whatever it is.
Huh. Maybe I got that backwards. Maybe it needs to be
Domainname\joeuser\joeuserold now. I can't remember.
These assumptions are based upon Exchange 5.5. I'd make different
assumptions if you had Exchange 2000.

Conversation: moving/renaming user.
Subject: moving/renaming user.
Ok, this must be obvious and I'm just missing a step....
JoeUser works 25% here (cdl.unc.edu) and 75% at another department
(med.unc.edu). That other dept is NOT using exhange and is NOT part of
our
NT network. (sigh) We are using Exchange 5.5 sp4.
JoeUser used to have other mail forwarded here. So
[EMAIL PROTECTED] --> [EMAIL PROTECTED] --> joeuser
Now Joeuser wants to use med.unc.edu email (don't ask me why, but I have
to
do it)
but:
1) must access old email box on my server using owa
2) must have [EMAIL PROTECTED] forward to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
So I did the following:
1) renamed joeuser to joeuser.old
removed all occurences of joeuser from my dist-lists (DL's)
made [EMAIL PROTECTED] the default "reply" smtp address
deleted [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the reply smtp address
2) created new custom recepient, internet address
joeuser which forwards to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
tested this on friday and it seemed to work well. Was able to send mail
from
America online to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and it went to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
when I sent mail from Outlook to joeuser it went to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Today he got new mail on my server (joeuser). He claims he can't get
into
OWA now. (how does he know he got new mail on my server if he can't get
into
OWA? He had a friend email him and he didn't get it. When I checked
joeuser.old there WAS new mail)
What am I doing wrong? Have I horribly complicated an easy task?
After you finish laughing please enlighten me!
