Re: Can Not recieve external mail



When you telnet to the new server, are you doing so from an external source?

I assume you can send outbound email?

Hi All,

I have installed exchange 2003 onto SBS2003 on a new faster server, on
the old server exchange 2003 was running on SBS2003, so no change
there.


I googled for exchange setup and found some easy to follow instructions, I also found instructions on how to test the config is right through telnet.

I can telnet to my Mail.domainname.com and send a test email to
mark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx but I can not send mail to mark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx from
hotmail.

If I swap back to my other server all works fine.

I keep the same IP as that is assigned to my router.

I con't work out how I can telnet to my server and send test mail to my
self but I can not recieve it from an external source!!!

any help will be appreachated.

Many Thnaks

Mark
