Exchange 2019 Email Address Policy per user

in flag

We have been tasked with changing our company domain for email. Active Directory will remain the same. I have created (but not applied) a new Email Address Policy that specifies the new domain. The only other Email Address Policy is the default with our original domain.

When we migrate, I need to be able to apply it to users one-at-time, to assist them with updating their devices. Google is failing me. Does anyone out there have experience / tips on this process?

You could create rules to further define the recipients that this email address policy applies to, you can define an attribute for the user to which the new policy needs to be applied, such as company attributes, screenshot for your reference: enter image description here

If you do it, the new policy only applied on users who has the specific attributes. Other users will not have any impact.

  • Create the new policy and don't apply it, as you already did.
  • Turn off policy-based address management for all mailboxes:

    Get-Mailbox | Set-Mailbox -EmailAddressPolicyEnabled $False

  • When you want to apply the new policy to a mailbox, turn it on again:

    Set-Mailbox -Identity [email protected] -EmailAddressPolicyEnabled $True

That is exactly what we ended up doing. Thank you!

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
