I have just made a couple of domain changes.
- Created a child domain.
- Changed from a 2000 native mode to windows 2003 domain.
All of the DC's are 2003 standard.
After making these changes, I ran domainprep on the child domain (successfully) and then added RUS to the only exchange server (2003 Enterprise) I have. The Exchange server is in the parent domain, and the RUS connects to the child domain.
When I create a new user with a mailbox, the user can:
- Create and send email internally and externally.
- Receive email internally.
My problem is this: The new user cannot receive email from any external source.
What am I missing? Where do I look?

Since these users can send and receive mail internally, a Recipient Policy is getting applied to these users. One possibility is if you have multiple Recipient Policies and the one with a valid/registered SMTP domain filters out these new users, so they never get a valid SMTP email address from the registered domain(s). I would check the email addresses for these new users -- if they got the correct Recipient Policy applied, they would have the correct email addresses from a Recipient Policy that generates a valid email address from a registered domain.
If that's not the case, check your Recipient Polices -- are you applying the correct filter that picks up these users from the child domain? If not, you would have to modify the filter so it picks these up.
