Re: Stop Exchange from sending mail

Well, clearly I haven't done a good job describing how this is setup.
This guy has Outlook configured with an Exchange account so that his
calendar and contacts can be shared with his employees. In addition
to that, he has 5 POP3 accounts. Those accounts, like normal POP3
accounts, are configured to send and receive email. He uses these
because he needs to send mail that says it's from user@xxxxxxxxxxx,
user@xxxxxxxxxxx, user@xxxxxxxxxxx, etc. He sends and receives mail
externally using these POP3 accounts. I'm sure that he's not the only
guy to have cause to use POP3 along side an Exchange account.


So this is an email client configuration issue. If using Outlook the POP
account should be set as default for sending and receiving mail. SBS
deployment of Outlook Profile is likely going to want to override that.

The other way is for the user to select which account to use.

If you do, then how will your users send any mail externally.
Outlook with a configured exchange profile is going to use exchange.

Do you really want mail ONLY delivered to the internal users?
Absolutly none will be sent externally NDRs will still result for
externally addressed recepients, but exchange will be the source of
the NDR not an external SPAM filter.

Is that what you want?

I missstated it. Of course he uses SMTP for outbound mail.
However, my point remains that Exchange is not setup to work with
any public domain. It is only a private .local domain. Its only
purpose is for calendar and contact sharing. When the users send
email, they want the email to show up in the recipients mailbox
the public domain associated with the POP server showing. In
other words, they do not want Exchange ever to send email over
the internet.

It's easy to stop exchange from sending email externally. But what
you want is the email that it does send to be from user@xxxxxxxxxx
not user@xxxxxxxxxxxx

Exchange will send using the default recepient policy. Use CEICW to
configure it as such (user@xxxxxxxxxx) and it will.

Is there a way to get Exchange to stop sending mail from
user@xxxxxxxxxxxx?

I have a client that we recently installed SBS 2003 R2 for. They
are using Exchange so that they can share calendars and
contacts. They send and receive email using POP3 accounts. In
fact, the business owner uses 5 different POP3 accounts. The
problem we are having is that mail keeps being sent from
user@xxxxxxxxxxxxx I have done several things to try to stop
this. I made a POP3 account the default and then edited the
registry to keep the SBS client login script from chaning it
back. I ran the CEICW and set it Disable Internet Email.
Neither of those stopped it. Then I went into the Exchange
System Manager and made changes. I'm sorry I don't remember all
of the details on that. Is there a way to get Exchange to stop
sending mail from user@xxxxxxxxxxxx?

You don't send using POP3, you receive using POP3.

You send using SMTP, and if you ran the wizards and entered the
proper domain name (public) the users would all have
user@xxxxxxxxxxx instead of user@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Internet email is INBOUND.

You nede to undo the changes, then reboot, then run the wizards
to properly setup your server.
