What is Exchange 2010 automatic mailbox distribution?

Have you ever wondered why, in Exchange 2010, you can create a new mailbox and you don’t have to tell Exchange in what mailbox database it should be created? Or had an administrator in one department create a mailbox, and the mailbox is created in a database that their department isn’t assigned? If you’ve answered ‘yes’ to either of those questions, you’ll want to check out a new article that was just posted today.

Where Did That New Exchange 2010 Mailbox Go? introduces you to automatic mailbox distribution, which is a new feature added to Exchange 2010.

Take a look at the article and let us know what you think of this new feature.
