UNIX sendmail and Exchange2000   

Hello all,

Our Exchange box relays mail (System messages) from a unix server via
sendmail, the emails are sent out to users for system updates etc.   We're
now in a position that we need users to replay to these mails, and have them
delivered by Exchange to the Uniz sendmail box.......anyone have any ideas
on this, may sound a bit wierd, I can provide more info on request.

Thanks.

Hi,

If the sendmail shares the same SMTP address space you can try this: 
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;319759

If the sendmail has a different SMTP domain you create a SMTP connector on 
the exchange server, configure the smart-host setting to point to the 
sendmail server and on the address space tab enter the relevant smtp domain.

Thanks for the reply Leif,

Do you know where documentation exists regarding setting up an additional
SMTP connector for this purpose.

Thanks, Andrew

There isn't much to creating SMTP connectors but you could take a look
at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;321721
which will put it into a bit of context for you.
