Note, I am not advocating this, just noting it is possible. Even with this, you still don't see the original client IP address as the origin of the SMTP connection at the backend MTA. Postfix sends XFORWARD metadata, but I don't think Microsoft Exchange supports this. You can use a proxy Postfix if you know what you're doing, but likely you should stick to store/forward. -- Viktor.
