design advice: Exch 2007 servers for faculty and students...
2 Exchange 2007 servers (one for faculty and one for students)
1 domain
Recently, I was told to integrate our students into our single active
directory domain and create Exchange mailboxes for them. We purchased
licenses for 3 Exchange servers: 1 for faculty, 1 for students, and 1 to use
as the front-end server. I have created an ou for the students and created
accounts for them on the student Exchange server.
My concern is that now students are mixed with faculty in the global address
list. I realize I can hide users from the gal, but, and correct me if I'm
wrong, Outlook can't resolve the names of those hidden recipients because
they are hidden. If they are not hidden, then students can spam faculty and
vice-versa. I could create my own gal containing faculty and student
address lists and then adjust permissions such that students can't see
faculty and vice-versa. However, that means that a recipient in the
opposite address list wouldn't resolve since the sender doesn't have
permission to that address list. In addition, the default gal still
contains all mailbox users anyway so making the separate lists didn't do
that much good.
What is the best way to deal with this situation? Is it okay for students
to be able to see the faculy in the gal? Also, is it safe to modify the
purportedSearch attribute of the default gal so that it doesn't list any
users?
Many thanks in advance for any advice!!!

Re: design advice: Exch 2007 servers for faculty and students...
- One really easy solution is to simply implement a transport rule to
disallow messages from students to faculty (but can keep those from facutly
to student if required, or implement it to disallow both ways).
- Also take a look at shared hosting scenarios explained here:
