Thanks again Anna for your idea. We now have pop3 working perfectly for our
remote users. Now the painful part, purchasing those extra licenses.

Hi Dave:

If I understand, your SBS server uses the pop3 connector to download and
deliver mail to user1 - userX on the SBS server, at yourdomain.com

At remote locations, other users, userZ for example, are using their pop3
connector in Outlook to download mail for their individual accounts from the
same ISP.

These users do not have accounts on the SBS server

mail addressed to userZ@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx by user1-userx goes undelivered.

One solution would be to setup accounts for the remote users on your SBS,
and have them pop your SBS for their mail.

Your SBS could then use SMTP mail, as (insert name of supreme being of your
choice) intended.

One disadvantage to this is that these users would then have to have
licenses on the SBS server.

Hi All,
We have SBS 2003 Premium Exchange 2003 sp2 and we have several sites who
use
the same dns domain name for email addresses *****.com where ***** is the
same for both our internal users and the external site users.
Is there a way to enable us to send mail to these remote users as at the
moment Exchange is correctly reporting them as undeliverable as the remote
site users are not setup as users of our main SBS site domain. Is there
some
way of changing the routing such that Exchange sees these users as
external
to our site and will route these to our outgoing SMTP DNS smarthost.
We do not want to set these users up locally and have the remote users use
RWW to access mail as they have their own pop3 accounts setup locally on
each
site and require Outlook open on their pc's all day. The remote sites do
not
have any SBS domains and are simply small groups of pc's with individual
pop3
accounts.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
Dave
