Please do not simply change your MX records and forward port 25 to
your Exchange server.        Start here:

1) Install a firewall, preferably ISA 2004, in-front of the Exchange server
2) Backup your system
3) Read the release notes for Exchange Service Pack 2
4) Install Exchange Service Pack 2
5) Install the latest Windows & Exchange security updates
6)
