Yes, you should be ok. You=92ll have to define the auto discover DNS entrie=
s in each DNS zone, but they can all point to the same back-end servers.  Y=
ou can even define multiple GMS servers too.  The docs are pretty decent on=
 this.  You=92ll just have a set of entries for each distinct email domain.

The problem stems from when the host name of the GMS server does not match =
the public host name for the service (and it boggles my mind how it=92s not=
 possible to control this, this is common practice to define services using=
 different DNS names from the host that actually holds the service, I think=
 just about every enterprise customer I work with does this.. but I digress=
).  You have no choice with auto discover but to expose the REAL host name =
of the server.

The host name control/setting is a significant flaw as far as I=92m concern=
ed.
