Enable TLS additional help   

Hi all,

I just followed http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2006/10/04/429090.aspx to 
set up TLS between another company.  The address space I used is the fake one 
in the SMTP connector.  But, somehow, I can not send emails out.  Can anyone 
help me out why this could happen?

In the document, it mentioned to create the second SMTP virtual server 
instead of the default SMTP server.  If I use the default SMTP server to use 
TLS encrption, will it block emails coming?

Thank you.

Yes.  I thought before I use the real partner domain name address,  I use the 
fake one address t.com in the SMTP address space to test.  I just do not get 
why I can not send emails to yahoo.com anymore after creating SMTP connector?

Did you remove *?

Also have you configured authentication on the SMTP Connector? If so this is 
a known bug, reboot the bridgehead/s.

Exchdump gives a good dump of the SMTP connectors, you could always use that 
and paste the output here.

Thank you for your help.

Yes.  only xyz.com in the address space.

not sure how to configure authentication on the SMTP connector.  I just 
click outlook security and anonymous access checked and TLS encryption 
checked.

If I enable the default SMTP virtual server to have cert and TLS, and 
require SSL connection, will some messages fail to deliver?

Thank you.

Hi,

Only if you select 'require secure channel'. However it is best practice to 
have seperate SMTP virtual servers for TLS.
