LOL.

Been a while for PHP, but I'd be happy to have a look off-list.  However, I
did note two things:
1) Are you really sending a "Sorry, email's not working" through email? :)
2) You have a relay restriction that could be on the connector if you have
one.  You can set the relay restriction to allow relay from a particular
machine if you want to.  Your error looks like that may be the problem.

Subject: [ActiveDir] OT: Exchange 2000 upgrade woes

Afternoon, everyone.

I did an in-place upgrade of my Exchange 5.5 box this weekend and brought it
up to 2000.  For the most part, everything is looking hunky-dory, with one
really heinous exception.

I have a web application written in PHP (don't ask, I had no say in the
matter), that uses the Exchange box as an SMTP relay to send email
notifications, "Forgot your password?" reminders, and the like.  Worked fine
(for the most part) under 5.5, but after the 2000 upgrade it just plain
-stopped working-.  I have tried playing around with the Relay settings on
the Virtual SMTP server, up to and including configuring it as a wide open
"Hey, SPAM-mers, over here!" relay, to no avail.

I've enabled logging in the admin$\system32\LogFiles, as well as set the
Diagnostic Logging under %SERVERNAME%\Diagnostic
Logging\MSExchangeTransport\SMTPProtocol to Maximum.  When I go to the web
app and force a "Sorry, email's not working" error, I get the following
entry in the SMTPSVC1 folder on the Exchange server:

2004-06-07 18:12:32 %IP-ADDRESS-OF-WEB-SERVER% localhost.localdomain
SMTPSVC1 HELO 250
2004-06-07 18:12:32 %IP-ADDRESS-OF-WEB-SERVER% localhost.localdomain
SMTPSVC1 QUIT 240

I see NOTHING in the Event Viewer logs, despite seeing any number of entries
to the effect of:

"IP Address w.x.y.z did not authenticate before attempting to send"

...from what I assume are SPAM-mers looking for an open relay.

If anyone has any server configuration ideas that they can offer, I'd really
appreciate it.  Or if someone is a PHP-head (I'm entirely not
one) who wouldn't mind looking at some code, contact me off-list.

Thanks all!  (No, not Al - though his posts are always informative -
All!)
