    Hi Guys,

    Need a bit of a advice.

    I need to bring a Google Apps service in house onto an Exchange 2007 Server that is already in use. Simply adding an accepted domain so that all email addressed to the Second Domain goes into corresponding users First Domain inbox won't cut it.

    So I'm going to create a second mailbox for each user and attach it in Outlook. What's the best way of doing this from an organisational perspective? Can I just create the Mailboxes or do I need to create another user account for each mailbox?

    I don't really want to end up with a dozen

    john.smith and john.smith.seconddomain accounts in AD.

    I thought about Public folders but obviously decided against them due to it being a ballache for remote users to use on OWA.

    Every user will need two mailboxes mate.

    Why don't you have the emails going into there primary mailbox and they can have two signatures and choose which email domain to reply from??

    Specific request that they go into a separate mailbox.

    So it looks like I'm going to have to create a dozen john.smith_seconddomain users then? and just give the original user accounts full permissions?
