I moved the maximum message size in the DRAS connector down to 0 bytes, and mail from the internet flowed across the IMS connector. Address space for the SITE2 IMS is: smtp, *;, 1 x400, c=GB;a= ;p=ENTEK;o=Site3, 1 Is it the fact that we're using the same SMTP addressing ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) that's causing the issue, since I can't put a smtp address space something like smtp, site3.entek-international.com, 1 in the address space?

What do you have for an address space and cost on all the IMSes?

Have recently installed VPN between sites 2 and 3, and would like to use something more reliable than DRAS connector, thus the IMS connector. Mail flowing great between all sites using IMS between site2/3. All domainA inbound internet mail uses Site 2's IMS. Problem is that mail destined for Site 3 is routed to DRAS connector instead of IMS connector. DRAS connector has highest costs in routing. Directory Replication working fine between sites using DRAS. Question: How do I get mail to not use DRAS connector, without removing the connector? I've read Q196927, but surely I don't have to modify all the SMTP addresses to siteN.domainA.com, configure the IMS connector, and then change the addresses back.
