Thanks Doug, I have been looking at the same thing, changing settings from my smart host to my backend server, but I don't think I have been leaving them long enough to replicate and my tests to work. Thanks for your input, I really appreciate your help.

That being so, look at your SMTP Virtual Server. If you are forwarding undeliverable mail to your smart host, your smart host will deliver it right back in. (bounce). I found it to be a problem here, solved by clearing that box. (Forward all mail with unresolved recipients to host:) I doubt that error you are getting is from the routing group connector, I'd look at the SMTP Virt Server. Doug Stelley Network Admin.

I have setup two routing groups and one routing group connector, and guess what, same result. :-) My master server is a backend server to a machine running trend mail scan, so all my smtp, inbound and outbound mail is getting routed by this server. I have setup my firewall to accept and pass all ports from both sites. What am i missing?? -----Original Message----- From: Mark Fugatt [mailto:mark@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: 16 April 2003 15:54 To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Routing Group Connector http://www.MSExchange.org/ Why are you configuring a Routing Group Connector if they are in the same site?
