RE: Catch All Mailbox
This came up under two scenarios: I had someone who wanted to use our exchange server under a disaster recover scenario (small company). I had someone with their own domain and wanted to be able to have the freedom of making up any mail address at their domain and have it go to their mailbox. -Original Message- From: Tony Hlabse [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, May 12, 2002 8:26 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: Catch All Mailbox Curious why would you want too do that? - Original Message - From: Ted Mosher [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Exchange Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, May 12, 2002 9:21 PM Subject: Catch All Mailbox Does anyone know if Microsoft has plans to offer a catch all mailbox for a domain in exchange?

RE: Catch All Mailbox
This comes up all the time in the hosting business. A lot of customers who are coming from other solutions (IPSwitch Imail, Rockliffe MailSite for example) are very used to this feature and really miss it in Exchange. Also they usually relatively do not want to pay for extra mailboxes if they can get away with it. And they want to catch as much mail possible because it is their lifeblood (requests for more info, sales, webmaster, postmaster, etc). You can't possibly predict how someone is going to send mail to them and create a secondary SMTP address beforehand. Plus so many people simply misspell addresses. And the customers always think that that one message that did not get to them was the most important of all. Exchange actually allows something like this but not quite the same - you can set up the SMTP virtual server to send a copy of all NDRs to one mailbox (I tried using a public folder but it did not work). The problem with this feature is that all messages collected this way look like NDRs not normal messages. Once I actually wanted to actually develop a script that would extract the actual message from the NDR, examine the destination address, and send the message to the designated admin mailbox for that customer domain. But first I did not have time, second I am not a programmer, third some customers actually did not want that :) (need a way to make it optional, turn on for some customers, turn off for others) But here is the idea anyway. If someone develops such a script, please share it with me :) Sincerely, Andrey Fyodorov Senior Exchange Administrator iNNERHOST http://www.innerhost.com -Original Message- From: Ted Mosher [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 7:52 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Catch All Mailbox This came up under two scenarios: I had someone who wanted to use our exchange server under a disaster recover scenario (small company).

RE: Catch All Mailbox
Dunno what Microsoft has plans for. You'd need to go third-party on this, or if it's Exchange 2000 and you have some development expertise, you could write an SMTP event sink to do it. -Original Message- From: Ted Mosher [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Sunday, May 12, 2002 8:21 PM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: Catch All Mailbox Subject: Catch All Mailbox Does anyone know if Microsoft has plans to offer a catch all mailbox for a domain in exchange?

Create a mail-enabled user with the SMTP address SMTP-CatchAll-SYS-E2KMS@yourcompany.com and grant yourself rights to view its contents. That's all you need to do. S.
