Sending email to external user who is not aprt of local active directory domain in exchange 2007
Dear All,We have configured Exchange Server 2007 with internal Active Directory Domain as mycompany.local. Our external domain is mycompany.com. Exchange POPs the email from the domain mycompay.com. We have roaming users who uses email address as externaluser@mycompany.comandthey are not part of my existing domain. When anyinternal user tries to send email to externaluser@mycompany.com exchange checks the name inernally and bounced the messages. It does not let the email go out of the box. How do I overcome this issue. I have many users who just poping email directly from my isp and they are not part of my internal domainRegards,NzmNzm

Do you have internet mail flow configured? If not, and you don't want to configure internet mailflow for mycompany.local domain then you can just create a Send connector for mycompany.com SMTP address to send mails directly to MX records of mycompany.com by defining them as smarthost. You can refer just "To use the Exchange Management Console to create a Send connector to route e-mail to the shared domain" portion of below article to create send connector for mycompany.com domain...

Thank you very much. It worked. The only thing I was doing wrong was I have created mycompany.com as Authotitative Domain in Accepted Domain ta instead of Internal Relay. Thanks a lot. NzmNzm
