Re: Exchange 2000 POP3 to SMTP



Just tried a few more things with no success:

Un-installed GFI Mail Essentials - no change, so re-installed.
Re-installed SMTP component of IIS - was curiously hidden/missing before -
has now re-appeared, still no change.
Re-installed Exchange from SBS 2000 disk and re-applied SP3 and post sp3
rollup - no change.

Any more ideas?

Hi

I'm having trouble getting my SBS2000 server to receive mail through SMTP.
Until now we have been happy using the POP3 Connector, but now we'd like
to use SMTP. I have started by running the ICW, telling it to use SMTP and
Disable POP3 and it has made a new SMTP connector. The Virtual SMTP server
is using all un-assigned ip's on port 25 with no filters and Access
control has Anonymous, Basic and integrated checked.- there are also no IP
restrictions. Even after running ICW the POP3 connector still exists - is
this right?

When testing the setup on the server itself using 'telnet \\servername 25'
I get 'Could not open connection to the host, on port 25 : Connect failed'

Active Ports states that inetinfo.exe is listening on port 25.

FWIW - I don't have ISA installed but I am running IIS & GFI Mail
Essentials.

Any ideas why I cannot get the exchange welcome message when opening port
25 using telnet?

Many Thanks
James
