OK, that's a valid point. No mail system should be generating NDRs after accepting a message.
1. Create contacts in Exchange that redirect to addresses in the subdomain of the CRM server. 2. Your Exchange system can continue to reject messages outright for "recipients that are not in the directory" 3. The outside world sees only one domain. 4. The CRM mail server can hopefully able to use a FROM address which matches the Exchange system's contact address. ________________________________ From: Don Andrews [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2007 6:45 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Routing certain email addresses to third party mail system. Well..yes, BUT ALL non-Exchange recipients will be delivered there and that system becomes the one responsible for generating NDRs for unknown users - seems excessive for a single address but might work - not all environments are like ours. ________________________________ From: Carl Houseman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2007 3:38 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Routing certain email addresses to third party mail system. Yes you can. Exchange can redirect mail to another mail server for any addresses it can't resolve itself. http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=321721 Carl ________________________________ From: Barsodi.John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2007 4:45 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Routing certain email addresses to third party mail system. Ya, that's what I was afraid of, I was pretty sure that I can't route a single address out.

(sigh) - well, unless you have an SMTP relay that can route to hosts based on the mailhost attribute, it seems to require subdomain or host.domain.com. _______________________________ From: Barsodi.John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2007 1:20 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Routing certain email addresses to third party mail system. The CRM system doesn't do POP, just listens for inbound SMTP connections.

Have the crm system POP the mail? _______________________________ From: Barsodi.John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2007 11:08 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Routing certain email addresses to third party mail system. I have a small challenge, we are implementing a new CRM system that accepts and sends email. They would like to receive mail from external and internal recipients to these addresses which belong in the same domain that Exchange receives for, domain.com. I've done this in the past with Exchange and sub domains; sub.domain.com and configured a SMTP connector to deliver to the CRM mail system. However, in this case, the implementation team would prefer to receive email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and have it delivered to the CRM system. Anyone have any suggestions or could point my towards some documentation this type of scenario?
