Default Exchange Server 2

[billberge]

Last month I installed a new exchange 2007 server. The new server has a different name and IP address from the old one. The problem is now when I add a new user to our active directory, the first time they login and try to start Outlook, they get a "server not available" "cancle, retry, etc" buttons. When I go into control panel -> mail -> email accounts and check the account, the old exchange server is always named there. A quick change to the new name fixes the problem for good. I am tired of having to visit every new user when they first log in to make this change. How can I tell Active Directory to set all new users default Exchange server to X instead of Y?

Thanks!

Have you checked your DNS records.

Set up the old name in DNS with the new IP address.
