yes, but it sounds you have selected to have the contact only receive
mail from authenticated users. you need to change that to everyone.

Bill,
They have about 35 users.
The hosting provider's documentation suggests:
1. Create a hosted account ([email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>), this also creates another email address
of [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>.
2. Create a contact in AD for user1 such as User1Hosted that forwards
to [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>.
3. Modify user1's local exchange properties to forward to this newly
created contact.
I have done all of this and get the previously mentioned failures and
successes depending on the senders location.
Is this what you were thinking?
Thanks,
Eric

you said small org. How many users? Is it too cumbersome to
setup contacts for all the @hosted email addresses?

Thanks for the help on this! I am very surprized the hosting
providers documentation didn't mention this at all! I even
contacted their support. I've never had to forward to an
external email address before. Is there a work around for
this without creating an open relay? The Exchange server will
be decomissioned once we have everyone moved to the hosting
provider.
Thanks again!

*Subject:* Unsolved Forwarding Issue
I am trying to help a small organization move to a hosted
Exchange
environment. As part of the process we are trying to setup
forwarding on the mailboxes that have been moved to the new
environment. If I setup forwarding to an internal mailbox
on our
Exchange server, forwarding works. Once I configure the
mailbox
to forward to an external address ([email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>
<mailto:[email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>>) and send from an external
address the forwarding fails. But if I send from an internal
mailbox, it forwards to the externally hosted address. I
get the
following error from the SMTP logs for externally sent email:
550+5.7.1+Unable+to+relay+for+user
<mailto:[email protected]
<mailto:550%2b5.7.1%2bunable%2bto%2brelay%2bfor%[email protected]>>@
<mailto:user@t <mailto:user@t>>hostedaddress.com
<http://hostedaddress.com/> <http://hostedaddress.com/>
The logs show the initial SMTP connection from my external
domain
and then another connection frowarding/relaying to the hosted
addresses. I am not sure if this is normal for Exchange
SMTP logs
so hopefully someone else has seen this possibly.
I didn't design the system and unfortunately the admin doesn't
seem to "remember" many of the details of the design. They are
using a Barracuda firewall/spam filter device which I've never
personally used and don't have access to yet.
Any help or ideas would be greatful so I can get this project
completed soon hopefully :)
Thank You,
Eric
