Managing recipients in Exchange 2000 is significantly different from managing recipients in previous versions of Exchange. This release introduces new features, and integration with Microsoft Windows Active Directory directory service means considerable changes. Windows user accounts and Exchange recipients are merged conceptually and managed through the same interface. The establishment of recipient policies and improvements in address lists provide further administrative flexibility.

However, as with other components in Exchange, functionality is restricted in recipient management in mixed environments where previous versions of Exchange are present. This technical article helps you perform familiar tasks, leverage new features, and successfully maintain coexistence of Exchange 2000 Server and Exchange Server 5.5.

The recommendations made in this technical article are based on the assumption that you use the Windows 2000 Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in to manage your recipients and the System Manager snap-in in Exchange 2000 to manage your Exchange servers.
