dear fellow storyans,
- planning to setup exchange server 2003 standard edition
- i don't have experience on installing this into live environment
- i did once in a test environment but within my network only
- i can able to manage the whole exchange setup installation but I just have some doubts that needs clarifications and advices from u
in our organization we have existing forest eg "
www.company.com" and mail server was hosted from our head office. now i want to build my own exchange server internally for some reasons such as backup and etc. and since we already have this email add like "myname@company.com" i am in the impression to use the same rather than creating a new one. also, this is to avoid changing the current email accounts we're using even though we are going to host it internally.
My questions are:
1.) is it possible to make more than 1 email server using 1 forest or internet domain? (
www.company.com) if so, do i need to ask our head office who has an access to point our mx records if im not wrong here.
2.) or do i need to register a new internet domain just for this purpose? (e.g.
www.company2.com)
3.) is it possible to point to other internet domain but still using the
www.company.com?
thank u in advance.
