To verify the flow of your e-mail traffic during e-mail coexistence, you must have at least one local Microsoft Exchange Server mailbox and one Microsoft Exchange Online mailbox.
For the purpose of this discussion, let's assume the following:
- Your organization has registered and is
currently using the e-mail domain name of contoso.com.
- When you registered with Microsoft Online
Services, your organization received the Microsoft Online Services
domain name of contoso.microsoftonline.com.
- You have created an Exchange Online test user
whose e-mail address is user1@contoso.microsoftonline.com.
- You have created a test user in your local
environment whose e-mail address is user2@contoso.com.
After you configure e-mail coexistence, follow these steps to verify the correct flow of your e-mail traffic.
To verify your e-mail traffic flow
-
In the Microsoft Online Services Administration Center, verify that you have entered a valid e-mail address for your company’s technical contact.
-
Log on to Microsoft Online Services as User1@contoso.microsoftonline.com.
-
Send an e-mail message to user2@contoso.com.
-
From user2's mailbox, verify that the message arrived correctly.
-
From user2's mailbox, send a reply to the original message.
-
From user1's Exchange Online mailbox, verify that the message arrived correctly.
