frontend/backend config question   
Exchange 2003, frontend - backend server config.  Let's call the servers 
front1 and back1.  I thought I could set up our basic Outlook 2003 install to 
create a mail profile with front1 as the server name and the logged-in user's 
username as mailbox name, and then the MAPI client would be smart enough to 
find the mailbox on back1, but it's not doing that.  The first attempt fails, 
and if I manually enter the "back1" as the server name, MAPI finds the 
mailbox immediately.  

I know I could create the install with "back1" as the server name, but I'm 
thinking ahead to whenever I have to migrate to a new server again- it would 
be nice to not have to change the install.  Am I misunderstanding something 
about front-end/back-end (like, there's no way what I'm doing should ever 
work)?  Or have I likely fouled up something about the front-end/back-end 
config?
