Vitor, you're original thought of having Sendmail send direct to Exchange is the configuration to go with. Have Sendmail forward anything destined for your inbound domain (mybusiness.com.br) to your Exchange server by IP address or by A record in DNS. Anything else it should only forward if from your internal Exchange server. All other attempts to relay to domains you don't own, should be dropped. Using the POP3 software is not needed nor is it a good idea IMHO since it adds unneeded complexity. Likewise, the Exchange connector you configure should always give mail to the Sendmail host if destined outbound. As for your errors, that is a Windows Error. Likely that you have specified a GPO that no longer exists. Not uncommon for a lab environment, but it will prevent application of subsequent GPO's. Check out http://support.microsoft.com <http://support.microsoft.com> for information about that and see what path you need to take to troubleshoot. Al _____ From: Vitor A.

In my intranet, I have my Exchange 2003. It´s like this: Linux Sendmail: user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Exchange domain: user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I´ve set a SMTP connector to send all my Exchange outbound messages to the Linux Sendmail and it is working fine! The main e-mail address for each user is user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (the user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I´ve set as a secondary address). The first configuration I´ve tried was to set my Sendmail to relay all the mail (in some mailboxes), and didn´t work, because I had a Server return message: "User unknow". So I´ve tried the POPBeamer, but I couldn´t find a demo version that is not expired. After I´ve installed, it was already expired! I´ve sent an e-mail to the company responsible for the software and I didn´t got any answer about it. Then I´ve installed a whole bunch of softwares that retrieve POP3 mail and none of them worked. I keep getting an error on the Event Viewer about DFS. I´ve looked for this event ID over the internet (inclusive Microsoft.com) and it says that it is an error of Windows XP (not my Windows 2003 Server). I don´t know if this error is the problem (I don´t think so). This is the error: Event ID:1030 Windows cannot query for the list of Group Policy objects. Check the event log for possible messages previously logged by the policy engine that describes the reason for this. Event ID: 1058 (the previously one) Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=interno,D C=kaizen,DC=com,DC=br.

Group Policy processing aborted. This is a test enviroment, therefor my Windows 2003 DC is the same computer that has the Exchange 2003 installed on it. If somebody could sent me a POPBeamer version that works (a demo version or even a crack one, just to be sure that works fine!), I would appreciate that. Thanks a lot, Vitor A.
