Long [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 25, 2004 9:18 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] OT: Exchange SMTP gateway I have the following Exchange 2003 Setup: Back-end server backend1.domain.com Back-end server backend2.domain.com Front-end server frontend.domain.com I would like to make sure that all machines send messages though the front-end server (default sends messages through the server the mailbox resides on if using a MAPI client, which is the back-end server). Unless I misunderstand what I am reading, I would just have to do the following to do so: Enter frontend.domain.com in the "smarthost" field under \Delivery\Advanced options of the SMTP virtual servers on backend1 and backend2. This sounds too simply, so I thought I would pass it by everyone here before doing anything. Is this the correct way of doing so? Are there any other tasks I should perform?
