Re: Applying Recipient Policies

Rich,
Thanks for your reply. I could have sworn I tried refreshing the view
and closing and re-opening the System Manager yesterday when I was having
problems, but evidently not because when I refreshed the screen this morning
everything worked fine. Thanks for your help!

I am running Exchange 2003 SP2 on a Windows Server 2003 SP1 machine. I am
trying to create a recipient email policy that will support another email
domain. I want the policy to be applied to members of a particular AD
Universal Security group. I have the filter created so it returns the group
members, and I have added the email address for the new domain. After I
apply it the policy is added to the list, but at the bottom of the list below
the Default Policy.

Have you tried refreshing the view?

I have clicke the Apply This Policy Now option after
right-clicking on the new policy, but the new addresses for the new domain
are not being added to the filtered members email lists. How are priorities
used?

They determine the order in which the policies are used by the RUS to
select AD objects.

If an account matches the filter in a policy with a higher priority,
does that higher priority policy over-rule the lower priority one that may
also have a filter that includes the same account?

It doesn't "override" it, it's just applied first. Since only one
policy can apply to any object, the lower priority policy isn't used
for that AD object.

If that is the case, how
do I elevate the priority of the lower priority policy. When I right-click
on the policy, I have neither the choice to Move Up or Move Down.

If refresshing the view doesn't help, try exiting the ESM and
rerunning it. The ESM sorts the policies by their priority properties.
If that doesn't work you can have a look at the priorities with LDP or
ADSIEDIT and change them (that'd be a last resort).

Also, by doing this, am I allowing all incoming email addressed to the new
domain to be handled by the Exchange Server, or are there other settings I
need to apply?

The priority of the policies doesn't influence the mail flow.
