If a user has multiple aliases is there any way of telling WHICH alias mail was sent to when it arrives in their inbox? We're running Exch/Outlook 2010 here and our mail server dude has decided that when a staff member leaves that their mailbox is to be immediately archived to THE VAULT and if their manager wants to keep their mailbox live - well, well tough poo poo.

The policy is to add the ex-employee's alias to another user so they can continue to receive mail at that address.

For example, I've got one user "Ann Perkins", her address is annp@mycompany.com.au - but she also has mail aliases for lesliek@mycompany.com.au aprill@mycompany.com.au - users who have left recently.

When mail arrives in Outlook, she has no way of knowing which address it was actually sent to, is there any way around this?

edit: figured it out. Set up a rule with "if message header contains XXXXXX" move to "blah folder".

Running Exch2010 - after I add an email address to an already existing mailbox - how quickly should that mailbox be able to receive external mail to that address?

Immediately, unless you have really latent AD replication or other outstanding issues.
Looks like we had AD replication issues then. It took about an hour!

The change has to replicate to a DC on the same site as the Edge Server handling the external mail. This should take 15mins or less if your AD sites are well-planned.
In this company that is highly unlikely.
