Moving to other Domain.

hi,

There's a company that has two parts or sites, they work at the same building but have different domain names, different UPN's, different e-mail addresses. In the past I did create a trust between them and it works fine.

Now, they want to merge both companies into one that will have a new Domain name and so we will have new UPN's and e-mail.

The issue is about the e-mail. Can I pass all e-mail to pst's and then connect it to the new e-mail account? How am I going to make a kind of link between the new e-mail and the old one, to make possible that all e-mail sent to the old address goes to the new one? is it easier just to advise everyone that the e-mail has changed?

I'll use ADMT to make the migration of users from one domain to another.
Thanks.

Hi mwadmin,

Yes, it is Exchange 2010.
Thanks for the tips. I'll take that in consideration when I start working on this.

Thanks.

Karllangston,

Good Idea about ExMerge, but if I put the other domain address as secondary SMTP, wouldn't the old Exchange server have to be on? if it is desmantled will the e-mails destinated to that address still flow?
As long as the MX records for that domain are pointing to the new exchange server then you will not have any issues with shutting down the old exchange servers.

This is yet to be implemented. The proposal has been done and now we are waiting for approval.

Thanks.
