Re: Email problems with SBS 2003 Std



Hi Smile,

Thanks for your reply.

It's strange you can't telnet the SBS successfully from Internet, does the
Exchange send and receive e-mail OK?

Please check if your SBS is open relay.

1. From the server, click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft
Exchange, and then click System Manager.
2. On the right pane, expand Servers. Then expand your server and expand
Protocols.
3. Select and expand SMTP. Right-click Default SMTP Virtual Server, and
then click Properties. 4. Click the Access tab and click Relay.
5. Verify that the "Only the list below" option is selected. By default,
there are only 3 items listed:
IP of Internal NIC
127.0.0.1
IP of External NIC

6. If you find more IPs listed there, please remove them. Also, uncheck
Allow all computers which successfully authentication to relay, regardless
of the list above.
If the problem persists, please also help me collect the information I
required for deep research.

I am looking forward to hear from you.

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Best regards,

Robert Li(MSFT)
