My Exchange 2007 server doesn't receive messages from Edge server. If I telnet my Exchange on port 25 from the Edge server I can send an email. If I telnet my Edge from the Internet it says that I cannot relay emails. I have the following message in the applications event viewer.

If I telnet my Edge from the Internet it says that I cannot relay emails. That's a good thing! You shouldn't be relaying e-mail for anyone. >I have the following message in the applications event viewer. None of those is relevant to your Edge server not relaying e-mail to domains that aren't in your Exchange organization's "Accepted Domains" list. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

I have 3 "Accepted Domains" configured. IFC.local ifcsolutions.ca ifc-solutions.ca First one is only local domain. The 2 others they are received on the Edge but nor relayed inside even if they are in the list of accepted domains.

Not related to your problem, but it's something you should fix -- your server identifies itself using its internal name. That will casue probelems with the delivery of e-mail to some sites: 220 IFC-EDGE4.IFC.LOCAL Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service The NDR when an e-mail is sent to an address in your domain doesn't say anything about a problem with relay or unknown recipient addresses Diagnostic information for administrators: Generating server: IFC.LOCAL postmaster@ifcsolutions.ca IFC-EXCH2.IFC.LOCAL #<IFC-EXCH2.IFC.LOCAL #5.7.1 smtp;550 5.7.1 Client does not have permissions to submit to this server> #SMTP# Have you changed any of the default permissions on any connectors? That error says that the session was authenticated (that's a good thing), but that "ms-Exch-SMTP-Submit" is missing. If the text said "EXTERNAL client . . . " it would mean you had the IP address of the Edge server in an IP block list. Run this on your HT server, substituting the connector name, and see if the Edge Transport Servers group is missing.

Hi, Yes, It seems to be a problem there. I ran the command on both Default and Client connectors and I get : User ExtendedRights ---- -------------- NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON {ms-Exch-SMTP-Submit} How can I fix this? How can this happen? Thanks F Coallier

Thank you. Everything works fine now. FC
