I really think the best way to do this is to set up a second IMS whose IP address isn't exposed to the outside that POP and IMAP clients use for outgoing SMTP mail. Assign the address space of "clownpenis.fart" instead of "*" so outbound messages don't try to use it. Or let outbound messages go through it if it isn't a problem with your routing configuration.

I have a few users that want to use Outlook Express instead of Outlook as their email client, which means they need to be able to send mail using SMTP. So far the only way I have been able to get this to work is to route incoming mail, allowing relaying provided it comes from our internal IP addresses. The problem I have with that scenario is that it appears that when outside users send mail with delivery receipts, the delivery receipts don't go out, and the administrator box gets an message undeliverable email. It appears that it is trying to treat it like an incoming email instead of outoging. Have I set up IMS properly? How do I get rid of the NDR? This is an Exchange 5.5 server, I think SP4. By the way, we use a Linux firewall running IPChains, but I don't think that has anything to do with the problem. Thanks in advance for any ideas.
