Here's one I thought would be very simple but might just be pretty complex - here we go.... OK all I need to do is change forename.surname@whatever.com to surname.forename@whatever.com. I'm hoping this is a simple precedure but I can't find how to do it - please can someone give me a little advice with this.

Thanks

I am assuming you are using an Exchange 2003 Server...
Open System Manager... click on Recipients container right click Default Policy on the right hand pane and go to properties.. got to E-mail addresses(Policy Tab) and change the SMTP Address to %s.%g@yourdomain.com
 
Thanks for the reply - Yep am using 2003. I have changed to %s.%g@ but when I pull up a new mail form and browse through my GAL to select an internal email address the format is still 1st name.surname@yourdomain.com. I have forced a recip update and still no joy - what am I forgetting??
