SBS 2011 EXCHANGE DOMAIN NAME CHANGE

I setup this ibm server with sbs 2011 all running sweet, now the boss wants to change the Exchange email from for example boss@chocolate.com to boss@choc.com to line up with our current website domain hosted at a hosting company.
We are using DynDns and have mx records set there for remote.chocolate.com for iphones and vpn's etc to connect to sbs 2011.
The internal domain is chocolatenet.local that won;t change.
Wished he told me this 2 months ago when i rebuilt it.

just create a new accepted domain in on your exchange and create new email address policy for you new domain and apply it on the required users/ou's etc.

point the mx records for choc.com to you exchange server

ok thanks, I am going to attempt to do this in a month.
the 25 exisiting users on the sbs box will their emails automatically change?
yes when you apply the new-mail address policy their email address will update automatically. But you should have to take care for your primary email address as that will be your sending address. Please set the that domain e-mail address policy on top priority from which domain you want to send mail
