What does that have to do with a mailbox store?

Add the new address to the recipient policy, and make it the default.

As for auto replying, not a good idea. It'll reply to spam as well.

Hi Pat,
I thought I needed to create a different store so that I can have both separated: one for olddomain.com and newdomain.com
ok so you saying I add the new address to the policy. Now I will have both, olddomain.com and newdomain.com.
The server will receive emails no matter what domain you sent to. Is that correct?

Well, that's partially correct. Once you add it to ANY recipient policy, the server will accept the message, assuming their is a user account with an appropriate address assigned to it.

There are other issues to thing about, including mail routing for the new domain, etc.
