We have a SBS 2003 server and have been hosting our own Internet e-mail for 2
years using our domain name. Our Corporate office has decided they will start
hosting all corporate e-mail and they have forced us to point our domain name
to there e-mail server.

We have changed our exchange server to retrieve our e-mail from the
corporate server using the pop3 connector which works correctly.

We were hosting the e-mail for several remote users who are now hosted by
the corporate server so we deleted those users from our SBS server. Now we
can't send e-mail to any of the remote users we used to host. we get the
following bounce message:

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

      Subject: Testing
      Sent: 11/5/2004 8:10 AM

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

      Nikki Smith on 11/5/2004 8:10 AM
            A configuration error in the e-mail system caused the message to
bounce between two servers or to be forwarded between two recipients.
Contact your administrator.

            <ourdomain.org #5.4.6>

Our Exchange recipient policy is still set to our domain name.

We do seem to be able to email everyone else in the company.

Any help would be appricated. This has been ongoing for about 3 weeks now
and is becomming a real problem.

Thanks.
Rick
