Of course I will share ;-)
But another question came to my mind: Let`s say I do not want to add the
secondary SMTP addresses directly into AD. Why not let Exchange do this for
me? Wouldn`t it be possible to define new receipient policies for each
additional domain? Will the primary SMTP address change in that case? Are
there any disadvantages when behaving this way (mixed mode E55 / 2000)?

Hi Mark,
thank you! Need to do this change "during the years" (as we say it in
Germany) so hopefully he can implement this in short time ;-) I don`t think
that this is a big issue ;-)
Greetings and Merry X-Mas,
Christian
