OT- Urgent question about Exchange relaying to MS

[Steven Andrews]

On the exchange box, go to Exchange System Manager drill down to
Servers, Protocols, SMTP, Default SMTP Virutal Server, right click,
properties.  Delivery tab, advanced.  Put your defender in the "smart
host" box.  You'll have to use it's FQDN, not just IP (you can setup a
defender.domain.local if you need on the domain's DNS server).  Click OK
to save it all.  Right click on the virtual server, stop it, right
click, start it.

Done.

The link you supplied below assumes smtp mail was never setup on the
box; I'm assuming it is.

Subject: OT- Urgent question about Exchange relaying to MS

Sorry about this Exchange OT question but I am in a tight bind. Have a
client that I am about to deploy/test DefenderMX for and we need to
point their Exchange 2000 server to send outgoing mail through the
DefenderMX box. I dont know Exchange so cant help them and unfortunately
the client is not that knowledgeable either. I found this below so is
this all thats needed?


Section 3, "Adding an SMTP connector":

http://www.christensen-software.com/support/config_exchange_2000.htm


This is the /var/log/maillog on the defendermx system when they did set
something in Exchange.....not sure what. (mailboxmaster.dos,ca is the
Exchange 2000 server)

I have also mailed FSL but waiting on a response, big time crunch so
