On the outbound connectivity you should have mail forwarded to smart host and that IP should be the mail essentials machine. Make sure the MES machine is resolving correctly as well as is listening on port 25 from internal and external.

I tried to install Mail Essentials on a system that had Exchange 5.5 (SP4) on it. I have done the backup routine etc. Installed Mail Essentials changed ports and services file etc. I then had issues with intialisation of object in the MMC. Due to the fact that this was a remote site and time constraints etc I have reconfigured everything back to the way it was and allseemed to be fine. But alas, it will download mail from the ISP via smtp (Fine) but it will not upload files. It complains that it can not resolve hosts. (Host unreachable) in the queues dialogue box. This is a server that is forwarding all mail to the ISP mail gateway. I am struggling abit for the quick fix and would appreciate thoughts. Thanks in advance.
