Hi Jdan,

The easiest way for us to help would be to have to post the NDR (bounce).

We recently upgraded our DSL service. In doing so, we have a "new" static
(public) IP address. We use BellSouth as our service provider (which is
PPOE); therefore, the only change to get Internet working was to change
the
User ID and Password in the Dlink DSL router (Alcatel Speed Touch Home DSL
modem) is connected to Dlink router) that we use. Dlink router is attached
to
external NIC on our SBS 2003 server.

We host our own Exchange Server as part of SBS 2003. I accessed our
internet
domain host account (we use BellSouth Web Hosting) and changed the MX
record
to the new IP address. After a few minutes, I checked to see if the change
was effective at DNSStuff.com. Indeed the MX record contained the new
Static
IP address. We also use MailHop Backup MX from Dyndns.com.

I made no changes to SBS 2003.

After making the changes, I tried sending an email to our Exchange Server
and the message was "bounced" back.

Do I have to make a change to some element of SBS 2003 for it to recognize
the new public IP address? We also use OWA to access our email remotely.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
