Hi,

I have just setup a small exhange server using SBS 2003. All the
clients have an email address of the form user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx These
emails are collected using the POP Connector then routed through
exchange. However there are other offices which have emails addresses
of the form user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and ofcourse when we send emails to
those addresses it seems that exchange attempts to send it internally
rather then externally. The message bounces back with the error:

The e-mail account does not exist at the organization this message was
sent to. Check the e-mail address, or contact the recipient directly
to find out the correct address.

I believe my mistake was naming this sbs server "mydomain.local" and
when I configured exchange I called it "mydomain". Is there a way to
tell exchange to send all messages to the external SMTP server rather
then attempting to deliver internally?

Normal email addresses work fine and all other functions seem to be
going well, I know I made a mistake in the initial setup but am a bit
lost exactly where I should be renaming things and what SMTP settings
(if any) I need to adjust. At this point the clients do not logon to a
domain, it is a simple setup, we just wanted exchange to share
calendars and Server 2003 to allow more then 10 concurrent network
connections so it is a basic setup.

Thanks,
Damian
