Re: Two diffeent Forest sharing 1 Exchange Server
I don't think this is too tricky. The hardest part is figuring out what
makes sense to your business after this one merger.
If you want to host a single Exchange 2003 org in your forest, you could
either put it in ABC.com or put it in 123.com or you could be tricky and put
it in a new forest called NewForest.com if that makes more sense. You can
put all of the users in the same forest if you want or you could have two
Exchange orgs if you wanted (in that case, why not one org in 123.com and
one in abc.com).
If I understand your requirement correctly, you want all email to look as if
it were sent from 123.com but your system should receive for 123.com as well
as ABC.com. You also want to share administration of the system. Is that
correct? If so, put the ORG in ABC.COM forest, and create the users using
the associated exernal right for 123.com users. Be sure to understand the
trade-offs of this design so you can properly set expecations. I suggest
reading up on the resource forest scenario to understand it better. As for
email, you can specify that all users have a ABC.COM mail address as their
primary. You can additionally add a secondary address type of 123.COM to
all the users that need it or all of them, whichever is easier. Change your
external mail flow to use this server as your inbound route, and you won't
miss a message.
Does that solve your problem?

Re: Two diffeent Forest sharing 1 Exchange Server
Al
Thank you for reply, the issues is that both 123.com and ABC.com has to
remain separate. Although there is a forest trust between both
organizations. We would like to keep users from 123.com to be able to send
out emails and when they do send out such emails to have 123.com in the
header. The same would go for ABC.com, the header has to also say that it
came from ABC.com. So as for the requirement go
Users from123.com has to have 123.com in the header
Users from abc.com has to have abc.com in the header
Must have to share resources from both ABC.com and 123.com such as calendar.
Must be able to administrator domain for each any domain.
As far as setting up a separate forest I how can I setup current users
already on AD on either 123.com or ABC.com since we have AD accounts setup.
What steps would I take for setting up existing users, do I consider ADMT
v2.0 . There is not plans in the near future the merge these domains
together. I have consider setting up a separate forest but I also have
consider setting up a cluster server one at 123.com and the other in
ABC.com. Then run VMWare Server on each of these server and setting up an
Exchange Server for 123.com and one for ABC.com? The bad point of that is I
am relying on software to keep the exchange running which I don't care too
much about. Let me know what are you thoughs. Thanks again.

Re: Two diffeent Forest sharing 1 Exchange Server
I would look into the Galy Sync and inter org connector option.
The other option you have is to host ABC.com on the current Exchange server
and take over the namescpace and own both ABC.com and 123.com and have
disabled accounts for 123.com user objects where the 123.com AD account has
permissions to open the mailbox
