hi
sorry to be so confusing but my main issue is to get the new domain/email account working correctly at the moment if an email is sent to us @worrellfry.co.uk then we do not receive it. the only email address that does work is @worrell-fry.co.uk and that one end shortly therefore i need the new one to be working by then!

so ignoring the old email address all i realy need help with is to get the emails pointing to my office server in order to be able to receive them this does not seem to be happening at present.

cheers

Alright I see now, so all you are wanting to do is setup your new domain/email on your Windows 2003 Server.

Do you currently have a domain controller as well as an exchange server?
Are you running exchange server 2003?

Take a look at these websites and see if they will help you:

oh oh way above my head i fear (or just no time to adsorb the info) we are running dns (worrell-fry.office) and exchange server 2003 in the office if that helps.

thanks so far i will continue to read the above articles in the hopes that they mean something!

just a quick question within the email addresses properties of business server 2003 what is the record x.400 mean this is within the section of smtp records.?

Hope fully this helps:

Exchange Server 2003 Enterprise Edition still provides a X.400 connector. With Exchange Server 5.5 this was the default protocol and connectivity standard. With the release of Exchange 2000 Server Microsoft implemented SMTP as the default protocol for connectivity. Due to backward compatibility there is still a X.400 based MTA stack available. But it is only a stack and not a protocol implementation. The following article is a drill-down through the basics of X.400 and how to configure the X.400 connector. Afterwards we will then talk about in what cases we still need it.

So basically you can enable it if you want backwards compatibility between exchange server 5.5 and 2000.
