Internet Mail Wizard to send outgoing email through 3rd party?

2008-01-15 Thread David Mazzaccaro
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.

Thanks,
Dave

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.

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.
