It sounds like you once told ISA to route all packets through the dial-up interface. Go to properties of Network Configuration and verify that it's set to use the "primary connection", not a dial-up interface. How many physical interfaces do you have?

This is also using NAT. The IP log is saying that the requests to port 25 of my smart hosts have been blocked and the interface is stated as dialout, Does this mean that the ISA server feels that it want to dialout to transmit the packets successfully.? How do I rectify this ? I have taken the NAT off the RRAS and have the default GW (0.0.0.0) of the ISA server pointing the demand dial interface. I want to keep the demand dial RRAS setup because it works without having to be logged onto the computer, unlike ICS. Your thought appreciated.

It sounds like the Exch server is not a secureNAT client if you have to have the FW client installed and enabled to connect through the ISA.

It can receive mail ok but I cannot get it to send. (Cannot connect to external smart host) I have followed the new SMTP tutorial but am getting no joy ! Basically I am trying to test by telneting to port 25 on my ISP's smart host. I can resolve the smart hosts name FQDN via DNS ok, but the telnet connection fails. I can telnet ok from behind the ISA server on a machine with the firewall client installed, and it works ok on the ISA server itself. I created a outbound SMTP protocol rule, and one for DNS, both apply to any request. I have disabled the SMTP service on the ISA server. II have published the Mail server. According to the tutorial, that should be it. It still don't work and I don't know what to do !
