Hi Everyone

We had a query from one of our smtp domains about changing where the NDR's
originate from for our org. Currently they come from
postmaster@ourdomain.co.za
They would like us to change it to our more global name so that it reflects
postmaster@ourmaindomain.co.za.
Microsoft have suggested that we change our default recipient policy to
reflect this domain according to Business is driving this big time, but all I can say is that I have a very
bad feeling about doing this.
What I would like to know if what this could possibly break.
Some things that come to mind:
Outlook Web Access
Outlook Mobile Access
SMTP addresses on all recipients

Has anyone done this before? Does anyone have any idea of anything else this
could effect?
Your opinions are much appreciated.

Regards
Brendon
 
Changing the default recipient policy will not affect:
Outlook Web Access
Outlook Mobile Access


It will however change
Default SMTP addresses on all recipients
It will set the default to the ourmaindomain.com address. So when users send email it will come from ourmaindomain.com. Users will still be able to receive mail on the ourdomain.com address without issue.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
