SMTP Relay Setup - Spam Filtering |
|
|
Does anyone know of any good tutorials on setting up a smtp server in the
following situation. I think i have my setup right and i want to see what i
may have done wrong
I have one server that i use for inbound mail filtering for spam (WEBSERVER)
and av and then my exchange server. (EXCHANGE)
My internet mx says send all email to WEBSERVER.MYDOM.COM. This server is
AFAIK successfully receiving email sent from outside. WEBSERVER filters the
email and then sends to EXCHANGE.MYDOM.COM.
WEBSERVER has my domain setup as a remote domain and set to forward using
smarthost, the ip of EXCHANGE is entered in brackets in the box. I also have
the allow incoming email to be relayed to this domain box checked. On
EXCHANGE I have the IP of WEBSERVER in the allow relay settings. When
WEBSERVER tries to send email to EXCHANGE I do see a connected session in
the current sessions view, that session will last as long as my timeout
settings allow (10 minutes). After which the connection is dropped and i get
and Event ID 4006 on WEBSERVER: Message delivery to the host '10.x.x.x'
failed while delivering to the remote domain 'MYDOM.COM' for the following
reason: The connection was dropped by the remote host.
What have i done wrong? what do i need to fix?
Thanks

Bob try to find a post by steve manatt on 11/7/05 he found the solution it
appears that there is something to do with sp2 for exchange, suffice it to
say if you add the ip of your smtp relay server to its own allow relay list
email will start flowing again!
