If by "main internet address" you mean the internet domain you use for all
your Exchange mail, you can add a new one as per
http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/MF010.html and make it the default. Set
up the new domain's MX record(s) to point to your server - you could even
use the same exact MXrecord as you use for your existing domain. All
mailboxes should receive the new email address/default settings specified in
the policy.

I suggest you leave the old domain name in place so that you don't bounce
any important mail, at least for a while.

If you wish you can then remove the old domain from your recipient policy.
Note that this won't remove the old SMTP addresses from the mailboxes, but
they won't actually matter any longer.
