Reposting with updates. Single windows 2000 AS running exchange 2000 (eval copy to rule out a problem with my normal CD). DNS is running fine. Ran netIQ's ADcheck and found no problems. Users have mailboxes created. All services are running. Created an smtp connector that is at the moment wide open. (All connections and relays set to All except list)(Server is not conencted to the internet) The queue in the default smtpvs have a folder icon with an ! with "Enumerate messages from the queue node" I can telnet to port 25. I sent an e-mail to a local user while telnetted in. Checked the tracking and found listed under the sender: SMTP: Started Message Submission to Advanced Queue SMTP: Message Submitted to categorizor SMTP: Message Sent to Badmail
And under the recipient: First 3 lines the same. On the last line SMTP: Non-Deliverable Report (NDR) Generated. Under Monitoring and Status, the SMTP connector and the server both show available. Dlivery Options are set to always run with all allowed priorities and types and no size limits. The address space on the connector is set up with the same domain as I am using for AD. Also, I am using the default ports for smtp and pop3. The default recipient policy has the correct smtp address. >From here I really do not know what to check. I have set up 5.5 before and it worked right out of the gate on the internal network. I really do not know what I am missing. As of right now the domain I am testing on consists on only one computer, the DC that is running DNS and exchange. I know that there is either something that I am not doing that needs to be done. I have done this twice now. First time I created an acct to install exchange with all the privies. Then created exch admin group etc etc etc... ran forestprep and domainprep. This time I just installed as admin without the preps as the book I got last night said could be done. (Mastering Exchange 2000 by Barry Gerber) >From everything I have seen, this should just work. Is there another way to test SMTP other than telnetting and sending mail? _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
