I've been banging my head on this and can't figure it out. I want my postmaster to recieve all mail to the domain that is mis-addressed. I can't find where to do this simple task. Help?

Thanks, Matt

In Active Directory Users & Computers, go to the Aministrator properties. Under the Exchange General tab, select a forwarding address. Select anyone that's in the global address list.

I'm framiliar with forarding and this could work if the system grabbed the incorrectly addressed mail. Unfortunatley it just bounces it. Need to grab it first. Ideas?

So your saying the sender is getting an NDR, but your postmaster account isn't? Do you have an account set up for postmaster? They way I have it configured here is I created the "postmaster@" SMTP address under the Administrator account, and it get's all the non-delivery reaports.

In AD users and computers change the primary e-mail address on the Domain Administrators account to something like "postmaster@" then in the Exchange 2000 System Manager find the SMTP virtual server select its properties - in here thereis an option (In think offhand its on the Delivery Tab) to set the email address of undeliverable mail.
