Well, nothing happens. User is merely evaluated as info@ourdomain
Furthermore, no other account exists or existed with this e-mail address.
Actually, as all accounts where migrated from an NT 4.0 domain (with no
Exchange server), none of the old accounts where Exchange-enabled, and thus
none had an e-mail address to begin with!
Any other ideas?

TIA
