Just a note - I found out the hard way that if you use distribution groups they 
are by default internal only - you have to set the group/list in Exchange 2007 
to accept external mails for them.

I'm not sure what your requirements are, but here is what we did.  I tried to 
keep it as simple and as "if I get hit by a milk truck tomorrow someone will 
need to work on this" troubleshooting friendly as possible :)

We have AD accounts created with the e-mail addresses we give to our users, 
supportem...@ourdomain.com<mailto:supportem...@ourdomain.com>, we then have a 
corresponding Contact object which is the RT server e-mail address so 
rtsupportem...@rtserver.ourdomain.com<mailto:rtsupportem...@rtserver.ourdomain.com>.
   The AD account supportem...@ourdomain.com<mailto:supportem...@ourdomain.com> 
is configured to forward all messages to its respective Contact object.  The 
Reply address within RT is configured as the AD account e-mail address so all 
communications go through the AD account.  Mail server for RT uses Exchange as 
smarthost to relay all traffic.

We're running 2003, but the same should work for all flavors of Exchange.

Subject: [rt-users] Exchange 2007 setup with RT3

Hello All,

                I have seen a lot of detailed posts in regards to setup with 
Exchange Server 2003, but the steps don't seem to apply to 2007. I have RT 
setup with my aliases and queues, and now its time to get the Exchange setup 
working properly. I have created a new send connector that uses a "smart host" 
setup with the ip address of my RT machine, but I don't really know how to make 
exchange only use that connector when mail is coming from or going to 
clientsupp...@domain.com<mailto:clientsupp...@domain.com>. As I have it setup 
now with 2 different connectors, much of my usual mail is being bounced back, 
since its being sent to the RT machine and it is only setup with the 
clientsupport email address.  I was hoping that someone had some EX07 
experience and could help me along my path !

Thanks in advance for any help/tips/advice I can get !!
