If you have FW you have to open it to the mail relay. I use Pop Beamer to pull mail since my FW is blocking everything from outside my LAN. There are other applications that do the same job.

I´ve set it to send all my messages through the Linux, as a relay and is working fine! My problem is when I forward the messages that arrive on my relay server to my exchange server: the message does not appears in my Exchange server, keeping on my relay server ( a linux sendmail). I´ve look at my Exchange server Event Viewer, and I got these two messages: 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. Next one... Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=interno,DC=kaizen,DC=com,DC=br. The file must be present at the location <\\interno.kaizen.com.br\sysvol\interno.kaizen.com.br\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini>. (Access is denied. ). Group Policy processing aborted. Do I have to do any configuration to my exchange server receive the messages from my relay server? Please, help me out!
