I'm in the middle of upgrading from Exch5.5 to Exch2000. All my users are on the Exch2000 box. I have an ADC in place. Whenever mail is sent, it is the Exchange 5.5 mail system that initiates the outgoing SMTP and sends the mail. Why is this? If I stop the Exchange services on the 5.5 box, no mail goes out. There is one SMTP Virtual Server on the Exch 2000 box, this is never used AFAICT. The Windows SMTP service is running. TIA Pete
Hi, Create a SMTP connector on the Exchange 2000 server with default cost (1) and this will be used for all outgoing SMTP mails from this server.
