Re: i need to host multiple domains, some questions

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Ben, for the separation, i'll use OUs since that's much easier than handling everything inside a single OU and use filters.

Right now, i've created 3 recipient policies, they're like this:
Company A policy, for OU "A", policy is SMTP @a.com
Company B, similar as above with B
default domain policy, with the domain.com

now, i've filtered the A & B policies for the OUs in question, but they don't update anything, the only direction to appear in "email addresses" is the default domain one.
what am i missing?

thanks for the response, i'll look into those docs and do the upn thing, that will solve part of the problem.
