Hi Simon,
Yes, you need to modify the default recipient policy and modify your MX
records in the Internet DNS. Also, remember that modifying the recipient
policy and removing the old domain name does not automatically remove
the old domain name based SMTP addresses from the user objects. The
users will still continue to have the old SMTP address as a proxy
address. However, the new email address will become the default. If you
really want to get rid of the old email addresses, then you have to
remove them manually from each user object, or write script for doing
that. No other changes are required.

One of our companies is changing their name. We will register the new
domain name for Internet and e-mail tomorrow. On the face of it,I
believe 
all I'll need to do is change the Default Recipient Policy in Exchange
2003 for the "new" e-mail addresses to become live and promulgate the
Exchange Store and AD. I'm assuming that old e-mails for users will
still
remain and their Outlook 2003 accounts will not have to be altered in
any
way. The ISP will point new domain name as required.

Can one of you confirm (or deny) the ease of this proposed change ?

Thanks
Simon
