2 part question.

we are chaning our company name from aaa.com to bbb.com.
We are going to maintain both for a while so, how do I add
it under IP 123.456.789.x

1) as a new zone? or a secondary zone?
2) I still want to get email from the smpt name aaa.com
for a while also?
Do I just give all mailboxes and DL's
and additional smtp name to make it happen?

New zone. But you don't say if you're using AD.

That would usually work, or you could simply change the MX record from
mail.aaa.com to mail.bbb.com and use the new addresses. It's the same
IP address as before, corrrect, you're just changing names?
