Title: FW: Sending Mail via Exchange server
Is the POP3 protocol enabled for your account on the Exchange server?  Looks like the addresses are being resolved at the exchange server level before it hits your smtp gateway.  (i.e. your exchange server is not your smtp gateway server)
 
If you don't have the rights to config your exchange to allow pop3, then config your perl scripts to send the messages directly your SMTP gateway server (external IP address) and the messages will be rerouted back into your company.

Exchange (at least as of 5.5) most certainly complies with SMTP standards. What, exactly, are you trying to do?

I don't understand your comment about the "global address book". Every mail recipient defined in exchange has the capability of having an SMTP address assigned to it. If you send SMTP mail to that address, the mail should go to the recipient.

I send mail to Exchange recipients every day via the Net::SMTP module.

Hi All

I am facing a bit of a problem!

I have sent emails from perl scripts in the past via SMTP servers,
this works fine using several different modules.

I have tried the same techniques on my system at work where via
Microsoft Exchange server (company standard), it only works
when the TO address is in the global address book, otherwise
the post is bounced by the server.

I am told that Microsoft Exchange does not adhere to the SMTP
protocol and that is why it doesn't work. Anyone know how to get
round this?

Nick
