How to update GAL in 2 different domains

Question
-
Hi, We have 2 domains. We are using exchange 2010 for both of them. Separate Exchange servers.
1. abc@123.com
2. abc@456.com
I recently change the SMTP addresses to a different Alias and set it as a reply on the second domain 2. abc@456.com
In AD of the second domain 2. abc@456.com, the email addresses were updated.
But how can I updated the GAL in our system? It still shows the old email domain.
I did the following commands but no luck.
Get-GlobalAddressList | update-GlobalAddressList
Get-AddressList | update-AddressList
Get-OfflineAddressBook | Update-OfflineAddressBookWednesday, March 15, 2017 8:04 PM

Does it show the correct address in Outlook Web Access ? If so, that means your outlook offline address book is not updated yet. Try downloading OAB in outlook and see if it helps...

Hello,
Would you please run below command to check the e-mail address for mailbox?
Get-Mailbox <test mailbox> | FL address*,*address
Please note that only the PrimarySMTPAddress will display in the address list.
And correctly, we can check the results in OWA first after update address list:
Get-AddressList | update-AddressList
Get-GlobalAddressList | update-GlobalAdressList
Get-OfflineAddressBook | Update-OfflineAddressBookBest Regards,

Sorry for delay.
Please open EMS with Exchange administrator, then run "Get-Mailbox <user's alias> | FL address*,*address". For example:
