I have a problem, I am running a Exchange Server 2003 Enterprise Edition Sp1
on a Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition with all service packs and patches.
I can send and receive internal email, and also send email externally. But no
inbound email is being received.

Any ideas?

what's your email domain name? do you have proper MX record/s in place?

The mx record externally correctly routes to the firewall and from there
internally routes to the Exchange Server.

If you telnet to port 25 from the outside the Exchange Server responds
ready!

The problem seems to be internal routing once inside?

Hi Susan

This thread is what going on here. Do you think I should run CEICW again to
get a good baseline before I pursue my problem further. I can receive and
sent email internally I can send email externally but I can not receive
exteranl email. bummber. I\.m running exchange boxed with SBS 2003.

Thanks
