I have Intel EMA setup to use windows login. We have multiple domains, so say I sign on as contoso\user. It pulls in an email from an account on another domain lets call that contoso2\user While both of these accounts are related to the same user. The emails associated with them are different. When you get logged on, the email being used to delegate permissions will be incorrect. So a user may not be able to login or have the right permissions. The current fix is to add both emails.
But it shouldn't be getting that email, its associated with a different domain. Its almost like its searching all domains for a username, but ignoring the domain it comes from.

Hello k_thnx,
AD is actually using a UPN (User Principal Name), not the email address. However, often UPNs will look like email address. You can have two UPNs be the same email address. This often gets confusing in a multi-domain environment.
So you need to verify in your AD it is in fact the UPN is what you believe you are trying to login with.
Also could you tell if this is an on-prem installation or in the cloud?

Yeah the UPN is being selected. But is for the wrong account. So say I am logged on as Domain1\User55. I may also have an account in another forest lets call it Domain2\User55. Both these account have different UPNs.
When I login using my windows credential it is getting User55@Domain2.com even though I am logged in as User55@Domain1.com
It seems like EMA is pulling the entire global catalog and finding the first match..
This is an On-Prem Installation.

Hey Jose,
While information is useful it doesn't solve the problem. The UPN ema finds does not directly match the account the user has logged into windows with.
So say I am logged on as Domain1\User55. I may also have an account in another forest lets call it Domain2\User55. Both these account have different UPNs.
When I login using my windows credential it is getting User55@Domain2.com even though I am logged in as User55@Domain1.com
It seems like EMA is pulling the entire global catalog and finding the first match..

Hello k_thnx,
Thank you for your feedback. Let me try to do a further research to try to find the root cause for this behavior.

Hello k_thnx,
Please bring up Powershell as the User55@Domain1.com and run the following command...
([ADSI]"LDAP://<SID=$([System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent().User.Value)>").UserPrincipalName
Then bring up Powershell has the User55@Domain2.com
([ADSI]"LDAP://<SID=$([System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent().User.Value)>").UserPrincipalName
Please go ahead and report back the results for each user. Our suspicion is that you have the UPN mixed up and they aren't associated to the right accounts.
