How do I change my administrator email address to some address other than my
existing domain on SBS2008, for the following reasons :

This administrator email account is is used only to send SBS2008 reports to
me on a different domain.
These SBS2008 reports fail to reach me. The email setup with the ISP are POP
accounts ( not mail spooling) and the ISP manages my domain. The
administrator's email address is not registered as a public address with the
ISP. When the ISP receives the administrator's email, the ISP considers this
as spam and therefore does not deliver this email to my email address
eventhough my email is on a different domain. The administrator's email is
received by my yahoo account.

A way around this is to purchase an administrator's email box with the ISP.
This will be my last option.

Thanks in advance for the help

Hi Jack

Are we discussing the built in every morning SBS reports that are addressed
to the names you put in when you run the wizard? If so, that can be any
valid email address. Just run the wizard again and put in the email address
to which you would like the report sent.

Why do you need to use the POP3 at your ISP? Host your own mail with the
Exchange 2007 server already available on SBS 2008 using SMTP for incoming
mail.

If you are sending the report to an outside email address, and sending
all emails using a Smarthost to the ISP, then you will need to create
an additional mailbox called Administrator on the ISP side.

Otherwise, if you are sending it to your internal account, as others
stated, it is not required, because it is going to an internal account
that is not on the Internet. Simply re-run the wizard as already
suggested.
