Is it possible on our Internal Network to get a Unix server to send emails to
Exchange users? If it is possible, where can I find some documentation?

Thanks

Exchange.

We have an app on the Unix box that needs to send emails to users on the
Exchange box. Unfortunately, no one here where I work know's Sendmail and
our software vendor is not very helpful.

Also, I guess I need to make sure that I've got the Exchange box looking for
SMTP on our Internal network. I've only got SMTP for external stuff. I
suppose I also need to configure internal DNS settings. (MX records?)

Just point the app to your Exchange server's ip address. (If your Exchange
uses a SMTP connector to send mail to the internet - address space = * , and
the unix process needs to send mail to internet recipients as well - poing
it to the bh.).

Use relay Sendmail with a relay host config and create your
dns records (MX)

You can also use the smarthost option to forward all teh mail to a specific
host by smtp transport.

Exim is a good alternatif for sendmail, it is easier to configure and offers
te same and even more.
