RE: Allowing internal SMTP but not external
After I hit send I came up with the solution. On the IMS there is a delivery restriction tab, if I add the users that aren't allowed to send outbound e-mail to the tab (or add a DL to the tab and the users to the DL) my problem is solved. -Walden Walden H Leverich III President Tech Software (516)627-3800 x11 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.TechSoftInc.com -Original Message- From: Walden H.

RE: Allowing internal SMTP but not external
I believe that you could also leave the smtp addresses in tact and simply empty the address space on the IMS. Also set the IMS to inbound only. Removing the address space will stop Exchange from sending (route will be removed from the routing table) but the IMS can still receive mail. This might be easier.

RE: Allowing internal SMTP but not external
Hmm. Well there is an option on each mailbox that you can setup the mailbox so that they only receive mail from internal users. I thought this was what you were requesting. -Original Message- From: Walden H.

RE: Allowing internal SMTP but not external
As stated earlier...validate your MX record and dns records. Install version 6.0 of the PIX IOS. Setup a static route like this: static (inside,outside) tcp (external_ip) www (internal_ip) www netmask 255.255.255.255 With a corresponding Access-list entry: access-list 100 permit tcp any host (external_ip) eq www This is the most "efficient" way to perform what your speaking of. However, if you insist on having the OWA server install on the LAN make sure you perform the following: 1. Install latest service pack. 2. Install latest updates from windowsupdate.microsoft.com 3. Install URL Scan from Microsoft for your IIS. However, be carefull with this one if your using SSL encryption. 4. Obtain a SSL certificate from Verisign if you haven't done so already and setup SSL option on the virtual server (/exchange) -Original Message- From: Tom Meunier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 17, 2001 3:55 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Allowing internal SMTP but not external I'm wondering if you could give them an invalid SMTP address, that wouldn't route externally.

RE: Allowing internal SMTP but not external
Yes. Dunno about Exc 2k but you can enable the option that states "Allow mail from these recipients only!" -Original Message- From: Tom Meunier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 17, 2001 3:55 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Allowing internal SMTP but not external I'm wondering if you could give them an invalid SMTP address, that wouldn't route externally.
