Authorative domains, Remote domains and Internal Relay domains
Confused!
In Exchange 2007 > Org Config > Hub Transport > Remote Domains, I have the following listed:
Name: MyDomain.com
Domain: *.MyDomain.com
Name: Partner1.com
Domain: Partner1.com
Name: OldDomain.com
Domain: *.OldDomain.com
Then, if I go to Accepted Domains
Name: MyDomain.com
Accepted Domain: MyDomain.com
Type: Authorative
Name: OldDomain.com
Accepted Domain: OldDomain.com
Type: Authorative
Name: Contoso.com
Accepted Domain: Contoso.com
Type: Internal Relay
Questions:
1. Does this mean my Exchange org 'owns' MyDomain.com and OldDomain.com?
2. What's the status of Partner1.com
3. What's the status of Contoso.com
4. I know people in the company send emails to mailbox@japan.olddomain.co m. Does Exchange own japan.olddomain.com as well? I notice that in Remote Domains, one of the Domain names was *.olddomain.com
5. If I had a domain name (e.g. example.com) is there an easy way to find out if Exchange own this domain, or it is an external one?

Questions:
1. yes, this means these are owned by your company and are child domains of the first. which means they would be within your network.
2. trace the IP address see if its within your network or at a branch network.
3. trace the IP address see if its within your network or at a branch network.
4. child domain so yes your company would own it but as i said also it maybe at a branch office or hidden away somewhere in another office.
5. if it is listed in your exchange server then you would generally "own" or have authorisation to the domain.
