System Manager
1.  Admdinistrative group
2.  First Administrative group (or which ever one you are dealing with -
I only have the one)
3.  Routing Group, First Routing Group (again, you may have others),
Connectors
4.  Pick your connector.  Probably called Internet or something like
that.
5.  Right click, properties
6.  Select 'Forward all mail through this connector to the following
smart hosts', enter the hostname or IP.  If you enter the IP, put it in
brackets, ex: [192.168.1.1]

All your outbound mail will be sent to your MailScanner box.  I didn't
have to make any changes on my MailScanner gateway - it treated it like
any other email.  I'm using sendmail, btw.  You will have to have your
gateway MTA set to allow relays either from your internal subnet, or at
least the Exchange machine.  You don't want to open up the box to any
relay of course.

Logging will look like what you currently have for logging on the
gatewway.  Mail from Exchange will land in mqueue.in, be scanned (unless
you whitelist it which is probably a good idea performance wise), be
processed, then moved to mqueue where it will be delivered to the remote
address somewhere in internetland...
