Configure accepted domain and Email address policies on Exchange Server 2010

An accepted domain is any SMTP domain for which Microsoft Exchange accepts incoming messages. Accepted domains can be authoritative or relay domains. Accepted domains are configured as global settings for the Exchange organization and on computers that have the Edge Transport server role installed.

Open the Exchange Management Console. Perform one of the following steps:

1. To create an accepted domain on a computer that has the Hub Transport server role installed, on that computer, in the console tree, expand Organization Configuration, select Hub Transbport, and then in the work pane, click the Accepted Domains tab. Click New Accepted Domain:

1accptdmn

2. On the New Accepted Domain page, complete the following fields and Click New to create the new accepted domain.:

2accptdmn

3. On the Completion page, review the following, and then click Finish to close the wizard:

3accptdmn

As you see Accepted domain created successfully.

For a recipient to receive or send e-mail messages, the recipient must have an e-mail address. E-mail address policies generate the primary and secondary e-mail addresses for your recipients (which include users, contacts, and groups) so they can receive and send e-mail.
