Last instructions I saw from Message Labs said to put a smart host on the SMTP Virtual Server. That is a very bad idea, particularly if you have more than one Exchange server, and it would be nice if third party services like Message Labs stopped telling their customers to do that.
What you need to do is create an SMTP Connector. http://www.amset.info/exchange/smtp-connector.asp Simon. -- Simon Butler MVP: Exchange, MCSE Amset IT Solutions Ltd. e: [EMAIL PROTECTED] w: www.amset.co.uk w: www.amset.info Need cheap certificates for Exchange, compatible with Windows Mobile 5.0?

Messagelabs would have given you a dns name to use for the outbound email. Just plug that into the smarthost setting on the configuration on your internet mail connector. I'm using Messagelabs now. You can contact be off-list if you want to. ________________________________ From: David Mazzaccaro [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2008 11:00 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Internet Mail Wizard to send outgoing email through 3rd party? So I need to send all outgoing email from our exchange server to Messagelabs servers. The only document they have that explains how to do this involves running the Internet Mail Wizard. I am a little hesitant to run this as our Exchange environment (2003 SP2) has been running fine for many years. Is there a way to manually configure Exchange to send all outgoing email through Messagelabs servers? If so, how do I do this? When I called to ask this question, their tech support said that is out of the scope of their responsibility, and they would not help me.
