Hi Guys I`m running ex2k3 and want to know how to set it up or configure it to send e-mails to the public world. Yes, on my internal network it`s working fine and I mean OWA, sending and recieving and public folders. I`m new to this exchange system and so please give me steps or procedures on how to accomplish this task.

You don't have to do anything. Exchange would just send the email out on its own via the SMTP virtual server. However it is probably a good idea to create an SMTP Connector in ESM, which will allow you to control the flow of the email messages, particularly if you have to use a smart host to route email through because you are on a dynamic IP or other blacklisted IP address.
