This is not possible via Exchange. You canrestrict SMTP Connectors to send mail to a particular domain, but to restrict it to specific users won't work. If you were to setup a connector for each user and disallow the rest of the users from sending, then most of the mail would fail as it would try the first connector, get rejected and give up.Raj

but i create another SMTP connector for that domain allow that restrict user to use this SMTP connector , it works or notjeevan

Domain wise , it will work. But how you are going to assign those two users on that connector.Raj

Hi Jeevan, You can create two SMTP connectors to allow only two users to use one connector for mail to specific domain and other users use another connector to external message. You can refer to Using Link State Information for External Mail Delivery section of following article: Understanding Routing Components http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123812(EXCHG.65).aspx ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mike Shen TechNet Subscriber Support in forum If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb @ microsoft.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
