I have two mailservers (one exchange and one non-exchange). They are both
located in the same room and are just feet apart. Both are behind the
firewall configured with a private IP address. If I send a message from the
non-exchange mailserver to an account on the exchange server, I get a message
back saying that "can't relay... error 550". Both servers work fine
otherwise. We can send and receive mail with no problem to ANY domain
outside of the network. Any ideas??

Thanks,
IRA

First you need to be sure Exchange is returning the 550 error code. Enabling
logging on the SMTP virtual server (general tab). Then test again and look
in the logs to see if exchange sent the 550 error.

Logs will be in c:\winnt\system32\logfiles.....

If exchange is returning the error...make sure the domain you're sending it
exists in one of your recipient policies.

Now I'm seeing that the non-exchange server is saying that the domain for the
exchange server can't be found. This is impossible, since mail from outside
of the network flows fine. DNS is resovlable and does point correctly to the
exchange server. The exchange server, the non-exchange server, and my dns
server are all behind my firewall and configured at a 192.X.X.X address.
