Re: SBS 2003/Exchange and seperate POP3 server - Possible?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Why POP3? You have Exchange 2003 included with your SBS Server and Outlook
2003 included with your SBS CAL. The customers has all the required
software and licensing to run Exchange 2003 in native SMTP but he wants to
use a third party POP3 server? Have you explained to your client the
advantages of going native SMTP as opposed to POP3? He may not know all
the features and advantages that Exchange 2003 offers such as OWA, RPC over
HTTPs, EAS, etc. Explain "special domains"? Exchange can handle multiple
domains so not sure if that is what you were referring too.

I'm looking for some advice on setting up an hmailserver alongside my SBS
2003 standard box. My client and I have exhausted ourselves trying to make
exchange work the way their existing POP3 mail works (numerous blind
addresses) and so I want to build a seperate box just to handle these
"special" mail domains and let exchange handle their normal user mail.

I want to know if anyone has done this and if so how? I'm pretty sure it
can
be done but a little over my head since I'm not sure how to split mail
incoming on a single IP..... with port 25 being forwarded to my SBS box
now.

Anybody?

Thanks in Advance.
