I have setup an Exchange2000 server on a Win2k server running as a member server of our forest root DC. We are running a mixed mode enviroment. Exchange accounts & Mailboxes work ok when I create them in the root DC. I can also configure a mailbox for a User in a child DC wich is totaly another separate Domain but when I go to the Outlook client (2000) and try to connect to the Exchange server I receive the following error message. "The name could not be resolved. The name could not be matched to a name in the address list" Any ideas on what could be the problem.

Thanks for your input,

Just a thought do you have a global catalog server in both domains? exchange uses this to resolve address.

This sounds like a DNS issue. Ping the DNS name you typed for the exchange server when you setup your email client. You will probably need to use the fully qualified domain name so that it doens't try and look in the wrong domain.

Hope this helps.
