exchange 2010

Hi All

I have exchange 2003 and exchange 2010 in co existence mode. We have created forwarders for all users in AD to redirect email to google cloud. Once an email is sent it hits my exchange server and then goes to cloud. i have tested with my user and individual emails work fine. they go to outlook and after that it is redirected to cloud gmail.

The issue is that when someone sends an email to a distribution Group we get the email on outlook but we do not get the email on cloud. What could be the issue and how can i solve this

if you are sending email to distribution group from exchange, DL expansion would happen 1st and then mail would be distributed to all members
U need to ensure that cloud users are member of DL or DL members have forwarding address set pointing to their cloud ID
Are you using Exchange or G Suite for your email?  Why are your forwarding this way?
When you set the forwarder using ADUC, it retains the original sender even in the forwarded email.
if the original sender organization is using SPF (sender Policy Framework), then the forwarded emails will be marked as Spoofed email or it gets rejected when your server submits (Forwarded) those emails on behalf of original sender.
In simple, this is not the right way to set the forwarder, if you are expecting External emails to be delivered to Google Cloud.

what is the right way to receive all my emails to my exchange server first and then to google cloud. Google cloud support was unable to help me so my last option was to setup forwarders
below thread discussed and solved exactly what you looking for:

Hi Mahesh

That solution doesnt work
Ok
What you need to do, in AD if you go to user properties \ attribute editor, you should find attribute named targetaddress
Here you need to enter google email address and same time you need send connector which will point to google SMTP servers for Google domain
Now test this with single user 1st and check how it works

BTW:
Are u migrating from exchange to gsuite?
In that case "targetaddress" need to be set on only accounts whose mailbox is migrated and MEU (mail enabled user) is left with exchange
Now whenever exchange receive emails from internal / external source, it will 1st check if it have mailbox, if yes mail will delivered locally only
If did not find mailbox locally, then take targetaddress attribute and forward email to gsuite through send connector
