Re: split route for outbound smtp email

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



Hi,

If you create another routing group and create a SMTP connector in this
routing group, you can have all mails sent to the internet from this routing
group go thru this connector and all mails to the internet from the original
routing group uses the original SMTP connector. This will not affect the
client access methods as you have front-end servers (as long as there is
connectivity fron the fe server to the new be server).

I think I've found this may be impossible where all mailboxes are on a
single
server, but am now looking at building a new Exchange Server in the same
org
but in a diferent routing group, but am unsure how routing groups change
the
behaviour of an Exchnage organisation.

Basically I have front end servers that handle incoming pop3, webmail,
OMA,
IMAP and BES connections through an ISA server and currently a single
mailbox, public folder server all within a single routing group. If I
build a
new mailbox server within the same organisation but in a separate routing
group will that allow me to set a diferent aoutbound SMTP connector for
that
server and migrate mailboxes accross as and when I want them to use the
alternate outbound route?
Would this affect mailboxes accessed by POP3, IMAP, OMA, etc when their
mailbox is moved out of the routing group where the front end servers
accept
these connections?

Thanks for any help.

I have a requirement to assign diferent routes for outbound email
depending
on the source smtp domain.

Basically we have an internal mail relay smart host which is currently
relaying all email to the internet, and I now need to forward all email
for
one of the SMTP mail domains that I have on my exchange box to a diferent
smart host which is on the internet and will do outbound spam and virus
filtering, etc.

I have also been asked to implement TLS for the outbound connection to
the
internet based relay, but this is not essential at this stage as the
outbound
internet relay is currently for testing and once we are happy with it we
will
change all email to route to the external relay and remove the current
requirement for having multiple outbound routes.

I apreciate any help that can be given.
