Hi again! Thanks Colin, it's quick notes, but I get the ideea, I will surely get back to them when they are more complete. (since I have no time to laborate and test stuff before they work) I would love, if possible, more complete notes before I jump on and try your setup. (maybe in a later scenario) Keep me updated!
And, we would/will/are hosting it ourselfs. The scenario for me is this: MS will(have) stopped supporting their product forefront which is used in another solution(hosted Exchange with multiple domains and servers) and I'm now evaluating what to replace forefront with. ASSP runs well in the much simpler solution (not running exchange, and with some tweaks) and we love it. Running ASSP in front of Exchange seems messy and seems bound to create trouble... or not! Problem is, it's a live environment so lots of changes needed(over all) are not welcome at the moment, I guess! Thanks for all input and suggestions!

How are you intending to run ASSP? Will it be hosted or on premises? We have a hosted solution where we run ASSP on a Ubuntu box with an Exim MTA. It sits in place like a normal relay without any special connectors or rules as follows: Internet -> ASSP -> Exim -> Exchange on premises Exchange on premises -> ASSP -> Exim -> Internet The Exchange box is completely firewalled off from the rest of the world and receives only TLS encrypted mail on port 25 from our ASSP IP. Exim is configured to do user validation and authentication. It calls forward to the Exchange box to validate the receipient before accepting it. Having Exim do authentication means that we can set our ASSP hostname as a simple outbound smart host with username/password authentication over a TLS connection again on port 25. One of the big advantages of Exim is that when the Exchange box or Internet goes down it will queue mail for the host. You can use a queue viewer to check your mail for anything important or even set an Exim filter that sends a copy of your mail to a backup address for the duration of an outage - we had this yesterday when the whole area around our office had a power cut for most of the day. I've been meaning to put some of our info back to the list to help others out for a while. We have a lot of other edits, for example our Exim auth is synced from our hosting platform as is the localdomains files. You can find a copy of my setup notes here: http://www.dolphinict.co.uk/Ubuntu-ASSP.txt I hope people find them useful. You will need to understand Linux to use them and you will need to do additional configuration to get things working, my config is mostly for the back end of the system and I haven't included any notes on configuring ASSP itself past the init script. All the best, Colin Waring. > -----Original Message----- > From: Pontus Hellgren [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: September 22, 2014 02:50 > To: 'ASSP development mailing list' > Subject: [Assp-test] Running ASSP with MS Exchange? > > This is a request for information about how to run ASSP with Exchange and no error report. > Please redirect this if there is another list for it! > > * Any caveats to avoid?
