Unfortunately my life is too much small enterprise exchange issues lately...

I agree with Jerry on this...

One other thing you have to consider....

Many domains (aol, gmail) require a PTR record for the IP to a valid dns
record. Some it must match the forward dns record...

i.e.

if your sending mail from

mail.company.com (9.9.9.9)

You will need a PTR (reverse dns record) of 9.9.9.9 -> mail.company.com

If you give up (highly recommended) just sign up for Postini. It takes about
3 hours to get the set-up instructions, and about 1 hour to setup. But its
more than worth it and you'll never waste time again. It costs about $50 to
$300 a year.

Subject: WAN Issue

  Hi SG,
I am having a serious issue with my WAN router. I have an outlook
webserver
that has both private and public addresses.
Here is the connection:

webserver------>switch------>router----->internet

The private address is what LAN users use to access the webserver while
anybody on the internet use the public address.

The issue am having is that I can send mail from my LAN to the internet
using this webserver but i don`t get to receive mails.

I did a test and sent mail from my webserver which is
seyi@tablefurnitures.com to my hotmail which is sameoj@hotmail.com and
verse
versal but to my surprise I checked both mails, in my hotmail I got the
mail
"seyi@tablefurnitures.com subject test but i didn`t get the mail I sent
from
hotmail to seyi@tablefurnitures.com

Where did I get it wrong, can someone please help me.
Thanks.
