Is it possible to set up a user with two external addresses ( with .'s in thier name )

i.e. fred.smith@test.co.uk and
fred.smith@testing.co.uk

Yes, as long as both MX Records for both INET Domains point to the correct GWIA. Just add the other Domain to the Internet Addressing Domain Names in the System Operations menu selection within GroupWise View. Right-Click on the Top of the GroupWise Tree.

Also add the other Domain Name to the Foriegn ID field of the GWIA.

Good Luck!
 
I already use both domains successfully but no users are currently in both ( until now! )

When I try to add the second e-maill address into the Groupwise Aliases - Gateway Alias box I get a duplicate entry error and it wont accept it.

You don't need to add an alias at the user level for the other domain. If you only need the user to receive mail under the 2nd domain name, nothing else is required.
 
The user needs to retrieve e-mail on both domains. Is that possible?

Thanks
Mark
 
It will go to the same mailbox, regardless of either Domain Name specified.

Good luck.
 
I am afraid I still cant get this to go!

If I remove the Alias info I dont get any external e-mails. If I enter only a name ( with no domain ) I get e-mail from the primary domain. If I try to enter both addresses with the associated domain I get a duplicate entry error. If I enter the Alias with the secondary domain name only it works fine, but not for the primary domain.

Any other things I should check?

Thanks

Have you turned on Internet Addressing? Sounds like you haven't.

System operations turn it on, setup the internet domains, select a default. Normally quick rebuild on domain then postoffice. Yippeeee done. (Well that's the summary) Lee Smith

Hi

I have all the info in the Internet addressing tab of the Domain. It is currently set up as UserID@yourdomain.com

When I changed it it first.second@domain.com I started getting client errors - When an e-mail was sent multiple frequent contacts would appear. The support site said this was because the POA was not at 5.5EH Sp 4 ( it was only at SP 3 ) Does this sound like it is turned on?

Do you mean a System Maintenance - Rebuild Database? I have not done this as it needs exclusive access.

Thanks
Mark
