Cannot send emails from SBS Exchange

  • Follow


Hi , I am setting up SBS 2008 for the first time and have problems
sending emails but can recieve using pop3 connector.On installation it
created a domain bagmaf.local, my email add is ben@bag.co.za which i
added in SBS Console but in AD user the ben account properties show an
email add benl@bagmaf.local (benl being the logon name to the sbs
server) , i have not setup send connectors and am using sbs standard
setup. The strange thing is ben@bag.co.za sends to my gmail account ONLY
not to any other account & i tried 3 diff addresses.In my gmail account
it appears as benl@bagmaf.local not ben@bag.co.za. From research on the
web i see options to "create send connectors and relays etc" which i
have no idea on how to do. i would really appreciate a walk through to
resolving this problem with the info i have supplied noting the
addresses i put in are not true for sec reasons.
Current errors are outlook 2010 asks for certificate on Ben pc and asks
for logon details 
Port 25 blocked but can Telnet and all ports on netgear router open
messages queing up in exchange
intermittent port mapping errors from fix net wiz

Thanx in advance - i am under pressure to get this project closed
a.s.a.p
ps would like advice on books for  sbs for beginners

You may have to set up a smart host since some ISPs require that for sending 
out emails.

My SBS 2008 has the same problem, so getting a smart host from my ISP will 
be my next action item -  haven't found the time to do so yet.

Please let me know if you make it out.

I just made my SBS working for outgoing emails. Yes, as I mentioned earlier, 
it was caused by this "smart host". As long as I configured it correctly, I 
was able to send out emails.

Glad to see you got yours working , can you answer the following for me
1) In the smart host config did you put your ISP server name e.g in my
case smtp.isdsl.net no authentication ?
2) Did you add anything in EMC add new domain and send connector?
3)In pop3 connector did you add the user email add to the AD user
account (i am now getting an error when retrieving mail from the pop3
connector
4)Is your local domain name on the server the same name you put into the
setup internet address my local dom is bagmaf.local my email is
bag.co.za

Appreciate it if you answered each point , I have rerun the wizards and
played with send connectors and added new domains with int relays etc
now i cannot rec and send

1. you need to check with your ISP for the exact host name and whether it 
requires authentication. For my case, I have to use login credentials for my 
verizon account.

2. I did not do anything extra to make it working, the wizard will 
add/config the send connector for you, unless you want to manually do these.

3. I don't think I am using pop3 connector.

4. No, the local name is different from the "internet" name.
