The virtual SMTP server will work with no configuration at all. It will create a connector [1] on demand, per site. Then remove the connector after a certain time. Works very well. So if you send email to joe.com and bob.com your Virtual SMTP server will create 2 connectors one for each. Then remove them after a short period of time.
[1] A connector is what you can create in the routing group. They are the same thing.

Many Many Many thanks. I do have one question regarding this. In exchange 2000 there are two types of smtp connector, one uses the smtp service from IIS in Win2k known as the "Default SMTP virtual server" (found under servername\protocols) and the other the more traditional smtp connector (found under first routing groups\connectors). I have had recomendations that I should use the IIS SMTP connector. I suspect this is due to scalability. My question is this, how do I use (if at all) the default SMTP virtual server from IIS when using multiple smtp connectors in the manner you recommend. I obviously want to ensure routing works and am concerned about this virtual smtp connector. Would it interfere with this set up? Do I just stop the service or do I have to configure it in any particular way?
