i have been looking at threads and trying all kinds of things - but to no avail. Here is the situation:
currently i have a number of applications or devices that send email - they are configured to send to a smarthost. at the moment they are configured to send to our Exchange server and everything works well. However, we are getting rid of our exchange server (we just finished moving mailboxes to Office365) - so i am trying to configure an IIS server i already have running, to start acting as the smarthost (so i will just change the various devices to point their emails at IIS instead of at the exchange server).
Here is the IIS situation.
- Running windows 2003 sp 2
- i have tried configuring in the IIS (7?) and IIS 6.0 mmc to make the server act as a smarthost.
- nothing i have tried is letting the emails go through when i enter the IP address of the IIS server (they still work if i use the ip address of the, still existing, exchange server.
- the emails these applications would send would be going to our domain which is hosted on office365
any thoughts on cleaning up my little mess would be apprecaited.
thanks
