HelloI have a developer who is working with a program called CompuLaw which is a 3rd party software that is used to enter Legal Court data and then have the program update the calendars of those involed with the case. CompuLaw has given me a few Shell Scripts to run in order to give a User that I created in AD rights to access the Exchange Server.....Now they want me to run this command and I am not sure of the PROS and CONS.....can anyone help me and advised.....what are the PROS/CONS of added this to my Exchange Enviroment. Set-ReceiveConnector -Identity "Default <ServerName>" -PermissionGroups "AnonymousUsers"

Ok, need some details first. Are you in a 1 server 2007 organization? Do you have a edge server? Set-ReceiveConnector command detailshttp://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125140.aspx

Hi,This basically allows anonymous relay on default receive connector.How to Allow Anonymous Relay on a Receive Connectorhttp://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232021.aspxI wouldn't suggest you to do that on Default Receive connector and the recommended procedure is to create a new separatescopedreceive connector (bind with the network IP address to receive relay mail from where you have installed your third-party application) and give anonymous logon access as per below guide.Allowing application servers to relay off Exchange Server 2007http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2006/12/28/432013.aspxAmit Tank | MVP - Exchange | MCITP:EMA MCSA:M | http://ExchangeShare.WordPress.com
