John, Tom,

Telneting to port 25 at mail.webeans.com is accepted by chili.webeans.lcl . 
This would mean that SMTP is ok. However when trying to send mail using the 
telnet sesion the following is the result.

220 chili.webeans.lcl Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service,
 at  Sun, 12 Jan 2003 21:01:13 -0800
helo
250 chili.webeans.lcl Hello [142.179.167.192]
mail from:auser@xxxxxxxxxxx
250 2.1.0 auser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx OK
rcpt to:johnb@xxxxxxxxxxx
550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for johnb@xxxxxxxxxxx

This implies that the user is not properly setup to recieve mail on the 
exchange server.

Kevin

Hi John,

Thanks for the nice compliments :-)

Is the SMTP service on the ISA Server disabled? That could cause this
problem. Also make sure there your account is configured to accept mail
for johnb@xxxxxxxxxxx

HTH,
Tom

Hello everyone,

My name is John. I'm brand new to this list.  On a recent support call
to
Microsoft help desk an ISA Server technition gave me two pieces of
advice:
  buy Deb and Tom Shinder's Configuring ISA Server 2000 and get on this
list.  Having now done both I'm hoping to gain a working understanding
of
how to configure ISA Server.

But, I'm just getting started.

I have a small test network set up very much like the one illustrated in
Dr. Shinder's article "Designing an ISA Server Solution on a Simple
Network Part 1:  Configuring The Network Infrastructure."  My network
configuration has both an external domain name (webeans.com) and an
internal domain name (webeans.lcl).  I have confirmed that both the
external and internal network domains comply with the model presented in
this article.

Using nslookup I am able to resolve all internal host names as well as
the
alias www.  I am also able to resolve the IP addresses of all internal
hosts via nslookup.  (The LAT is configured with the IP address range of
192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.15.)

Using nslookup on my ISA server I am able to resolve the names
www.webeans.com and mail.webeans.com to their network IP, but when I
enter
the IP address, nslookup *fails* to resolve to the names and instead
delivers the following error message:  "sttlpop1.sttl.uswest.net can't
find 63.224.44.83".  (sttlpop1.sttl.uswest.net is the dns server for my
external network.)

Currently I have my ISA Server configured according to Dr. Shinder's
tutorial "Getting Started with ISA Server".  I am please to say that
client access to the internet worked just as the tutorial predicted.

My next step was to successfully publish my web site by following the
steps described in Dr. Shinder's article "A Web Site Using ISA Server
Part
1:  Preparing to Publish Your Site."

Buoyed by the success of my first two steps I immediately took on the
challange of publishing my mail server.  All I needed was to be able to
send and receive mail and enable OWA.  Using Dr. Shinder's article
"Publishing a Mail Server With ISA Server" I was successful in sending
messages that originate from the internal network to my email addresse
on
yahoo.com.

*BUT* that's as far as I have been able to get!

I am quite unable to send an email message from yahoo.com to my internal
email address.  (A further note of explanation here:  I have Exchange
2000
configured on the internal network where my email suffix is webeans.lcl.

However I have added johnb@xxxxxxxxxxx to my internal mailbox and have
internally sent to that address successfully.)  The destination email
address I am using to from yahoo.com is johnb@xxxxxxxxxxxx

The error message on yahoo when the message bounces is:

Message from  yahoo.com.
Unable to deliver message to the following address(es).

<johnb@xxxxxxxxxxx>:
63.224.44.83 does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for johnb@xxxxxxxxxxx
Giving up on 63.224.44.83.  This error message appears very quickly
after
I attempt to send.

I am also unable to access my email using OWA, but that is another
incident that should probably wait until my inbound email can be
succesfully configured.  Suffice it to say that I can get the password
validation screen up and correctly filled out, but it falls to actually
present the OWA email page.

Any help you can give me as to why I can't receive email is greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
John Bean
