2 Locataions with the same domain can not send email to each other.
Hi all, we have a new client who is based in two locations and they both have the same domain. The system is working fine until a user at location 1 wishes to send an email to a user at location 2. The location 1 exchange server keeps the email (as its the same domain) local and produces a error that the user does not exist. They pick up their mail via pop (ie location 1 picks up half the email and takes it back to location 1 and location 2 back to location 2) It is SBS 2003 system. Is there a way to force either all outgoing mail back to ISP (even with same domain) Is there a way of creating a list of email address (ie for the other location) that are forced outbound to ISP Thanks in advance David
