I want to do this - IMS as a front end to Exchange 2003.
   1. How do you configure IMS and Exchange so it works?
   2. Does IMS protect incoming mail only or both way traffic?

One note of caution on using IMS as a sending MTA (outgoing mail) that you may or may not have run into yet. Some anti-spam filters are now tagging heavily based on the IMS server ID string. The rationale is that being a freeware server IMS is more likely to be a choice of spammers. Unless there's a registry hack that I'm not aware of, that ID string can't be modified.

There are other considerations of course, such as IMS not supporting ESMTP. According to the web site for softhome.net, they won't even talk to non-ESMTP sending MTAs. Something to consider, anyway.
