Re: [IMail Forum] OT: How to specify outgoing IP in MS SMTP

[Matt]

Thanks for all three replies.  I'm afraid that while these solutions 
would work for moving a single IP, it wouldn't work for multiple IP's.  
I can send E-mail just fine from the base IP of the box, but I would 
like to have separate outgoing IP's for each MS SMTP virtual server.  
They will all listen on separate IP's, but they all send from the same 
default IP.

The only remote clue that I have come across is that this might have to 
do with connection pooling in IIS.  It also might just be a "feature".

Perhaps your firewall can do the outgoing source address translation?

Subject: [IMail Forum] OT: How to specify outgoing IP in MS SMTP
I was hoping that someone here had an answer for this after I came up 
with nothing even remotely related through extensive googling.

Basically, MS SMTP will use the machine's default IP address when 
sending E-mail (unless you specify another SMTP server as the Smart 
Host, which doesn't apply).  I would like to have MS SMTP send E-mail 
using the same IP address that it is bound to for listening.  I have 
have found nothing that even indicates that this is a limitation, so I'm

not sure if it is possible, or if there is a metabase hack for this.  
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt
