Hi

i have an active directory, the user have an accounts such as xxx@qimco.qa
now we have a domain name from our internet provider which is qimc.com.qa
and i want to change the active directory name to be qimc.com.qa so that the
users accounts will be xxx@qimc.com.qa and also the internal e-mails, but at
the same time i have an exchange server 2003 and i want these internal e-mail
to be public now they can send with it but not recieve so whats the scenarioa

You're going to have to do some reading. It's not trivial to do, but
well documented.

You didn't say, but I assume you're domain is a Windows Server 2003
domain. If so, here are some useful links that might help. I used the
step by step guide to do a domain rename a couple of years ago, and it
worked perfectly. Read the two asterisked (*) documents first:

Hi - please see the replies to your identical post in the Exchange 2000
group.

In the future, please don't multipost - if you need to post to multiple
groups, it's best to crosspost instead, by posting a single message to a
handful of relevant groups (separate the NG names with commas) so that
everyone can follow the thread. Multiposting wastes everyone's time,
including yours, and may lead to your actually getting *less* help rather
than more.
