Hi All:
I have just transitioned our workplace from Exchange 2003 to Exchange
2007 with no problems.
In Exchange 2003, I ran a back end server just for webmail.
Internally, the computer name of this backend server was WEBMAIL. The
server was used some internally for webmail but way more often
externally thru a URL that was natted in.
In Exchange 2007, I am running OWA on the same box as the Exchange
server. I've got external users natting thru and accessing
webmail.companyname.com with no problem.
However, I want internal users to still be able to open their web
browser and enter 'webmail' and get OWA to come up.
The old backend server from Exchange 2003 has had Exchange uninstalled
and this machine is no longer around. The new exchanger server is not
named 'webmail', its named 'exchange'.
I realize that internally the users could just enter exchange in IE
and come up to OWA.
However, I would like to somehow get the name of 'webmail' when
entered into IE internally to forward over to 'exchange'. And the old
back end server webmail is no longer around, so I can't just forward
it from that box.
Is there something I can do in DNS or elsewhere to make all interal
clients go to 'exchange' when 'webmail' is entered into IE?
Thanks!
Drew
