Do you currently host your own mail via SMTP?

sorry i dont understand this, i have exchange server, do you mean
this?

How do you receive Internet mail? Is mail for itsupport.com sent directly to
your Exchange server? Meaning, your domain's public DNS contains an MX
record that specifies an A record such as mail.itsupport.com (that in turn
points at your public IP). In that case you can use
https://mail.itsupport.com/exchange

(It would be unusual to use www for this purpose...mail, smtp, etc make more
sense.)

Try with your public IP address, as I suggested....
https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/exchange and make sure*that* works.

so if i try www.itsupport.com/exchange which points to my routers
public address which forwards port 443 to internal ip of my exchange,
will this work, and how does router know that
www.itsupport.com/exchange is on port 443.

The router just forwards the traffic to your Exchange server. The IIS
virtual server handles the rest...

finally why do i have to put exchange at the end of .com?
'
Because it's a virtual server. Just try it and see if it works first.

and again do
i need to put anything in my internal DNS relating to my external
domain?

As I wrote before, no.

thanks for your help!
