Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 will reach end of support on April 11, 2017. To stay supported, you will need to upgrade. For more information, see Resources to help you upgrade your Office 2007 servers and clients.

 

Applies to: Exchange Server 2007

Use the Introduction page of the Edit E-mail Address Policy wizard to edit an existing e-mail address policy. E-mail address policies specify how e-mail addresses of the recipients included in the policy should be formatted.

For example, you can create policies in which every member of your organization's Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) e-mail address will display: lastname.firstname@example.com or alias@example.com.

You can also use the Exchange Management Shell to create and manage e-mail address policies. For more information, see the following topics:

Use this wizard page to configure the following attributes of an e-mail address policy.

  • Name
    Type the display name of the e-mail address policy that you are creating. The name can contain as many as 64 characters but cannot include wildcard characters.
  • Include these recipient types
    Select the types of recipients for the e-mail address policy. You can select All recipient types, or the following specific types:

    • Users with Exchange mailboxes   Select this option if you want your e-mail address policy to apply to users with Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, Exchange Server 2003, and Exchange 2000 Server mailboxes. Users with Exchange mailboxes are those that have a user domain account and a mailbox in the Exchange organization.

    • Users with external e-mail addresses   Select this option if you want your e-mail address policy to apply to mail contacts with external e-mail addresses. Users with external e-mail accounts have user domain accounts in the Active Directory directory service, but use e-mail accounts that are external to the organization. This enables them to be included in the global address list (GAL) and added to distribution lists.

    • Resource mailboxes   Select this option if you want your e-mail address policy to apply to Exchange resource mailboxes. Resources mailboxes allow you to administer company resources through a mailbox, such as a conference room or company vehicle.

    • Contacts with external e-mail addresses   Select this option if you want your e-mail address policy to apply to contacts with external e-mail addresses. Contacts with external e-mail accounts do not have user domain accounts in Active Directory, but the external e-mail address is available in the GAL.

    • Mail-enabled groups   Select this option if you want your e-mail address policy to apply to security groups or distribution groups that have been mail-enabled. Mail-enabled groups are similar to distribution groups where messages sent to a mail-enabled group account will go to several recipients.
