Hi, Ok heres where I stand and I am going to try and be as detailed as possible - I hope someone can help me get this fixed - I am running SBS Server 2003 w/ Exchange 2003 SP2 - AD / DNS / SMTP / POP/ OWA already setup and running - My whole goal is to setup this server to Receive email directly (host its own email) into the Distribution group so that when user's use OWA to access their email it automatically pulls it up.Domains:Local - domainname.localDNS has example.org setup in Forward lookup zone along with MX record / A and Reverse PTR Am attempting to setup with SMTP/POP (If I can use POP) for mail.example.org (mx points to that with the global IP of the router)I ran CEICW-Internet access - Broadband with router - DNS is pointed at myself- Web cert - use the same- Internet Email - Enable- Use DNS to route- Email Retreival Method - Check in "Use MS Connector for POP3 Mailboxes"; Check in "Use Exchange" - Bubble in "Email is delivered directly to my server"- Email Domain - example.org- Pop3 Mail accounts - 50 users setup (using port 110) - example of one with settings belowUsername = user@example.org | Mail Server = mail.example.org | Mailbox type = Global Mailbox (can also choose exchange mailbox) | Email Domain = domainname.local - Use following sched - Every 15 Mins- Allowing exchange to remove some email attachments and saving bad attachement to folderCEICW errored on email config the first time - the second time with the same settings it successfully saved my settings - At that point I open Outlook on my personal machine with my personal email setup (josh@pageltechnology.com) and the josh@example.org is setup - I send a test message from josh@example.org to josh@pageltechnology.com and I did not receive. RD back into the server - Open IIS / SMTP Virtual Server / example.org / Domains - Heres my list:Example.org (local)Defaultdomainname.local (local)custom* (local)custommail.cedarlakein.org (local)customIf I double click on * both box's were unchecked - I checked the "Allow incoming mail to be relayed to this domain" and left the "Use Helo instead of ehlo" unchecked - Using DNS to route - Once I checked the "Allow incoming mail to be relayed. . ." I was able to send from josh@example.org to josh@pageltechnology.com and receive the mail instantly. Performing a reply yeilds no response back - and no new email in OWA via the user josh@example.org - Now onto Exchange System ManagerI will start with recipient poloicy -- Default Policy - Priority = lowest Inside the policy shows this-Filter - (mailnickname=*) -Email Addresses Policy - SMTP / @example.org - is set as Primary and has a Checkmark in "This exchange organization is responsible for all email delivery . . ."SMTP / @domainname.local - not primary and does have a check mark in the exchange org. is resp for email del . . .
