There are instances where the Office Mail App URL needs to be updated.

The Office Mail App utilizes the  EnterpriseVaultDirectory - ComputerEntry table - ComputerName column  field to build the OMA URL it uses to connect to Enterprise Vault.

The Office Mail App URL is stored in a manifest file within exchange at the time of the execution of the New-App command. 
To confirm the current URL that the Office Mail App (OMA) uses, the Get-App command can be executed in the Exchange Management Shell.
