Hi all,

In our environment (Hosted Exchange 2013) we use AutoDiscover HTTP redirect, this is still used by iPhones and some Android phones.

I have installed the HTTP redirect on the Exchange Server asswell, leaving us with the issue that when i create a new customer with the Hosted Exchange as Hosting Plan it does not create the autodiscover redirect in IIS.

Is it possible to automate this?

The explain a bit please see:  http://techgenix.com/using-autodiscover-large-numbers-accepted-domains-part1/

For autodiscover redirect you will just need to use a separated external IP with only port 80 available (or do it on a web server/ different server which hosts http sites if you have one).

you just need to have the binding of port 80 with no hostname set, all you do then is simply point your own A record to that IP

like autodiscover.mydomain.com and use cname on customer domains to point to your A record (this way if IP ever changes it's easy to adjust).

I wouldn't recommend creating a different site or bindings per domain as that list can get crazy large on larger environments.
