Hello,

I believe that you are incorrect on this. I have setup a contact called:

Testwth1

It has two email addresses associated with it:

SMTP:wth1@xxxxxxxxxxx (Primary)
smtp:wth1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

From an indpendent SMTP server I send a message to: wth1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Here is the trace of the SMTP converstaion:

The exchange server simply passed the mail off to the primary address via
SMTP. I have been doing this for a long time.

So, you are saying, create contact with multiple SMTP addresses assigned. Any
email sent to that contact to any SMTP address associated with it, will
always get forwarded to it primary SMTP address. I have to disagree on this
one. I am really curious on this one. It will not work that way. Instead, if
you create a contact and set user@xxxxxxxxxxxx as secondary address, and set
a primary address as user@xxxxxxx, all the Exchange does is when it receives
the email addressed to user@xxxxxxxxxxxx, it will try to send that email to
user@xxxxxxxxxxxx using the best possible route, in this case a local
delivery. When that fails the sender gets an NDR, nothing more is done by the
Exchange.


Regards,

Raj

Hello,

Create a new contact and set its primary smtp proxy address to the target
address. Add a proxy address for the local email.

For instance.

Set up a contact called Joe User. Set its email address to JoeUser@xxxxxxxx
Add a proxy address for Joe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Send mail to the
joe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx address. It will be sent to JoeUser@xxxxxxxx
