Hosting separate company on AD 2003 and Exchange 2003
I have a client who is starting up a new business with very little cash. To help him, I have offered to host his e-mail on my Exchange Server. I am running an Windows network using Windows Server 2003 and Exchange Server 2003. He will have approximately 16 people who need e-mail. I want to setup and host his e-mail domain within my existing domain. I want his users to have only his domain e-mail addresses. I want to restrict his users to a custom address list for his company only. I have been reading about this for a few days via Google, etc and I am confused. Can some please point me in the right direction?

leew,
Thanks for the prompt reply. I already have ample Exchange and Windows CALs for my server, so that cost is something I already bore a long long time ago. I just need some technical assistance in reconfiguring my Exchange Server 2003 to handle this.

leew,
Thanks again for the pointer, however, I have already done what you referenced; as a matter fact, I used the Petri.co.il article as a source. The part I am really stuck on is limiting the new uses to one specific address list.

Which I don't think you'll be able to do in 2003 (MAYBE 2003 Enterprise, but doubt it).

I'm not sure how you'd get a separate Global Address List... The whole point of a Global Address List is that it's GLOBAL. Exchange 2007/2010 can likely handle this better... of course, better still, have your friend use a hosted Exchange solution - it's cheaper in the short term - typically $10-15 per month and no need for CALs, so 16 users can be as little as $160 per month instead of starting off with $1500 for the CALs necessary, not to mention your time and effort getting this setup.
