Re: MOSS 2007 & WSS 3.0 List E-mail Configuration

This newsgroup is only for people using WSS 2.0 or 3.0.

Please post MOSS questions to newsgroups that deal in them.

For instance the new newsgroups for all products such as microsoft.public.sharepoint.setup_and_administration

I have two (2) farms on the same network. I have a MOSS 2007 farm that is configured to e-mail to lists. This works like a champ, this is not the problem. On the SAME network, I have a WSS 3.0 farm. I want to be able to e-mail to lists between farms.

For this example, the company Internet address is www.moss_server.com. The email address with FQDN would be MOSSlist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for the MOSS farm and the WSS list email address with FQDN would be WSSlist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Here’s a high level IP example:

MOSS Farm -
SMTP Server IP Address: 192.168.2.10
List E-mail Address: MOSSlist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

WSS Farm - SMTP Address: 192.168.2.20
List E-mail Address: WSSlist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

SMTP is enabled on all servers involved. Admin rights to both farms are configured on all sites. MX records are configured for all sites on the MOSS farm. When I send an e-mail, I see it delivered to the mail drop box on the MOSS farm, but once it disappears, I have no clue where it goes. It simply doesn’t get mailed. I just can’t seem to get it to work.

One other note, we are NOT using an Exchange Server at this time. This is not an option, nor is likely to be one in the foreseeable future (political reasons). Is this even possible w/o an Exchange server (even on the same network)?

Any thoughts?
