Hi
I want to set up Exchange accounts such that they have multiple X.400
addresses and multiple SMTP addresses.
Now I know how to create alternative addresses for users individually,
and I know how to use the ADMIN/E and ADMIN/I functions and some data
file manipulation to deal with
bulk loads, but my requirements here are slightly different.
I want the multiple addresses to be standard for new accounts, such
that when I create a new mailbox, I'll want it to have multiple address
types by default.
The Exchange addressing defaults doesn't seem to offer a facility of
using any more than one form for each address by default.
Do I need to employ a custom DLL to do this kind of thing? If so are
there any code samples around for it?
Thanks
K

Good question.. gateways do this using a the proxy generating dll (see the gateways SDK docs) but I dont know if it is possible to replace the IMC proxy generating function with a custom version. I'd like to know the answer though because we will soon hit this question on the internal systems. A brute force approach is to create mailboxes via an import script where you can include secondary proxy addresses. | |||||

This really depends on how you are creating your new mailboxes. If they are on the fly, then I think you are stuck with adding the new addresses and setting the appropriate primaries. If you are using the Import functionality then you can set the required primaries in the CSV import file. This is done by using the heading "Proxy-addresses". This field defines the primary address for the import user. It can look like: ....,mode,Proxy-addresses,Secondary-proxy-addresses,... .....,create,X400:c=GB;a=admd;p=prmd;s=bridport%SMTP:Bridport@mail.dec.com, X400:c=GB;a=dmda;p=dmrp;g=nigel%SMTP:Nigel@mail.dec.com,... This would result in a new mailbox with the primary addresses of: X400:c=GB;a=admd;p=prmd;s=bridport SMTP:Bridport@mail.dec.com And other, secondary, associated addresses of (You can have as many as you like here: X400:c=gb;a=dmda;p=dmrp;g=nigel SMTP:Nigel@mail.dec.com Within Exchange you can only have 1 primary address per protocol. Otherwise, how would Exchange be able to route messages *:-s Nige. | |||||
