Have you ever heard the phrase "Jack-of-all trades, master of none"? I am yet to see or here of a all-in-one copier that truly works as desired on all functions. > The emails aren't being sent.

Some one that tells me to just set up my server for relaying, I would not call wonderful. While you can set up Exchange to relay for one IP address, I agree with you that is not desired.
