If the corporate server is POP/SMTP, then have them setup alias/forwarding
to the Exchange box.

Subject: Exchange 5.5 - Configure for Broad Band Cable Modem


Hello Exchange List...

This is my first posting, so please
excuse the length of message.

We have been using NT Small Business Server 4.5
with Exchange 5.5 and the POP3 extensions for
more than a year with excellent results.

        Dial-Up Modem / ISDN & recently Cable Modem
        to our corporate mail server have all worked. 

Our local office user base has increased and we have
moved to a brand new installation of Windows 2000
and the full product Exchange 5.5 (SP4).

We have setup an Internet Mail Service, but with a cable modem scenario we
oviously don't have a dial-up connection to configure... and in SBS the POP3
extension handled this area quite happily.

We can Send e-Mails to external addresses and internal addresses.

However, we just cannot get Exchange to poll the Corporate server to collect
inbound Mail for us.

In simplified terms for a non-Exchange person - What information should we
ask our mail-server colleagues for; how & where should we then configure
this and in practical terms have we missed something obvious?

If you think Exchange 2000 is a better option for a clean install we are
ready to move and work with that product...

I just cannot seem to find simplified step-by-step instructions for either
Exchange 5.5 or 2000.

Any help and/or advice will be greatly appreciated.

Regards
