Complete newbie to on-premise Exchange 2013, so please bear with me...<br />
<br />
We have two domains. &nbsp;Each domain has a distribution list with the same name. &nbsp;So how does Exchange 2013 know which distribution list to resolve to? &nbsp;Where is that configured?<br />
<br />
I ask because we recently created the second distribution list in domain 2, migrated everyone over to domain 2, and now we want Exchange to resolve to the second distribution list. &nbsp;However, it is currently resolving to the first.<br />
<br />
Thank you for your thoughts!

Multi-domain Distribution List Scenario

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.

Email Servers

Microsoft Outlook is a personal information manager from Microsoft, available as a part of the Microsoft Office suite. Although often used mainly as an email application, it also includes a calendar, task manager, contact manager, note-taker, journal, and web browser.
