User principal names (UPNs) have nothing to do with e-mail addresses nor
server names. You can add an alternate UPN suffix to your domain and change
your users' UPNs to match their e-mail addresses if you want.

Hello were embarking on installing Exchange 2007.

Our domain controller has a active directory name of
"companyname.local" Its a internal domain running windows
2008 server.

When Exchange is installed and exchange extends the AD Schema will
it be possible for our Outlook clients to log into exchange using our
real domain name and not the domain name of our internal AD server.

For example currently users log into our internal domain with

username@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx from their desktop pc's

When exchange is deployed I would like our Outlook users to log in
to outlook using

Username@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

and not username@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Is it possible to do this or will I have to use the same naming for
exchange as the active directory enabled domain name..

Thanks JJ
