Re: Help setting up two SMTP servers

Windows SMTP servers or Exchange?

Conceptually, inbound servers are determined by MX records and their targets - you can point these to the appropriate Exchange/Windows SMTP servers. If existing non-Exchange servers serve as MX targets, you can point them to those Exchange/Windows SMTP servers to deliver inbound mail. Any non-Exchange SMTP servers handling inbound mail need to be added to the internal SMTP servers list in Global Settings | Message Delivery | Properties to ensure stuff like Connection Filtering and Sender ID works.

For outbound mail, if using Exchange server(s) - make these Bridgeheads on SMTP Connector(s) for address space *. If non-Exchange (Windows Server or other SMTP servers), add them as smarthosts on SMTP Connector for *.

I am trying to setup an inbound SMTP server and an outbound SMTP server. But haven't found any documentation on how to configure each.

Can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks

Justin
