Navigate to the properties of your SMTP virtual server, then go to the Messages tab and set the Administrator Mailbox to whatever mailbox you want to fill this role.

MEMBER FEEDBACK TO THIS ASK THE EXPERT Q&A:

Is this correct for Exchange Server 2003? I couldn't find an option to set the administrator mailbox at the described location.
