I would like clarification if anyone can before I make this change. Currently, we have Recipient Message limits set on a per-mailbox basis to satisfy some recent company policy changes. The default for the company is that no standard user can send to more than 15 people at a time; however, we have a variety of users that are exempt of the defacto limit and can send more.
I had planned to change our: Set-TransportConfig -MaxRecipientEnvelopeLimit
for the Organization and then, instead of manually inputting 15 for the vast majority, I would only input the exceptions on each of their mailboxes. If my understanding is right, that would be fine; however, I'm not entirely sure I understand correctly. I noted here:

That this exception would only be valid for internal message delivery and that if an executive sent over the organization's limit to someone outside of the domain, they would be put into the 15 limit. . .
So, the question is: Can we set an Exchange 2010 limit to default for 15 recipients for both internal and external mail sent as well as define exemptions for various levels of executives and development groups?
