SUMMARY
Exchange 2000 Server now supports a feature referred to as recipient policies.



MORE INFORMATION
Recipient policies take effect on configuration objects that are typically thought of as "user-side" objects, such as Users, Groups, and Contacts. Exchange 2000 Server supports e-mail address generation as a recipient policy.

Recipient policies employ a "background apply" implementation to make configuration changes. An administrator creates a policy, defines the settings that policy should implement, associates that policy with one or more objects by means of a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) query engine, and the policy is applied at a later time based on the schedule of the Recipient Update service (RUS).

NOTE: The recipient policy is referred to as the Address List service running under the system attendant.

Recipient policies are designed to apply configuration settings to items in the Windows 2000 domain containers and are optimized to apply settings to any number of objects across distributed Windows 2000 domains.
