Linux mail relay + MS Exchange
That what my company is going to implement in growing amounts at client sites. If anyone can share his experience, especialy which freeware/GPL product to use at Exchange site to pull the mail from Linux using Pop/IMAP. Also some RTFM links would be great. Currently we use Redhat + Popbeamer combination, which is not free.

We use SMTP (Linux in DMZ with MX record pushes all the mail to Exchange in LAN) today and going to replace it with much more secure pull.

Re: Linux mail relay + MS Exchange
why not using pop3d to get mail from MS?

Re(2): Linux mail relay + MS Exchange
Or I just didnt understand the question. I mean using the in.pop3d with sendmail/postfix and then receive the mail in MS. If you will use in.pop3d and you will enable it from inetd the 110 port will open and then you will be able to receive the mail from MS.

RE: Linux mail relay + MS Exchange
How is that more secure? This is more secure, because you don't need to allow any connection from DMZ to your LAN. If you forward all the mail from DMZ to your LAN by SMTP, you have to allow incoming SMTP connection from Mail Relay to Exchange that recides in LAN, which is potentialy more dangerous than alowing only POP3 from LAN to Linux Mail Relay.. Doesn't this mean that you have to keep a users list on the DMZ server? No. I keep a single account in Linux, which recieves all the mail for domain, and Popbeamer ( http://www.dataenter.co.at/products/popbeamer.htm , 129$) or similar Windows product can routes them to my Exchange users using POP3. Plus it is added complication, which does not necessarily mean that it is good. I also believe that SMTP has some mechanism for pulling queued messages. Probably not MTA of Exchange.

Do you mean you use a multi-drop mailbox, which receives the mail for all recipients? If so, don't you have problems with mail messages, especially thos from mailing lists, not being routed correctly? I tried such a setup once (the fetchmail docs say explicitly that it's dangerous), and it didn't work satisfactorily under some circumstances (mainly lists).
