Why would SourceTransportServers be null? RGC's require source and target entries. Costs are all at 1. Link-state routing updates have been disabled. I did not make RGC's bidirectional but I did create corresponding RGCs in all of the Exchange 2003 RGs to correspond with the RGs on the 2007 side.

We have installed a CAS, HUB Transport and Mailbox server (with HUB Transport role also installed). When the first HUB server was installed, it automatically created the necessary routing group connectors to allow email flow between 2003 and 2007 and it worked fine. We recently deleted these connectors and recreated them as we have multiple routing groups which require new routing group connectors to efficiently route mail. Ever since creating the new connectors, we are only able to receive email from 2003 to 2007 but are unable to send from 2007 to 2003. The Queue Viewer indicates the following: 451 5.7.3 Cannot achieve Exchange Server authentication I have checked to make sure "Integrated Windows Authentication" is checked on the 2003 SMTP virtual servers and they are all checked. Also, all of the 2003 servers are correctly listed as members of the ExchangeLegacyInterop" group. This is happening on every connector we created. Any ideas would be great.
