A little tip for the Exchange admins among us…

In Exchange 2007, if you add an address for a user as an additional address (under the user properties dialog), when the user receives mail at that address, the “To:” line shows as his primary address.  If you add the address as an email Distribution Group, the user will see the secondary address in the “To:” line.

Why does this work this way?  I don’t know…why does Microsoft do half of the weird things they do?  But at least if you’re an Exchange admin, and you have people in your organization with “Chief” and “Officer” in their title who care about this issue, now you’ll be able to fix it for them.
