I didn't take it like that at all-- it's just that I've been thinking about this solution, and I'm wavering a bit back and forth now; well, specifically with regard to Exchange and IIS-SMTP based solutions, anyway... Now that my SMTP gateways in my DMZ are back to IIS-SMTP (I just replaced Trend IMSS with GFI in the DMZ - IMSS had it's own SMTP engine) the Microsoft authentication mechanisms available make this a more compelling option. I think I was wrong to denounce it entirely - and I think Jim's analogy to my "outbound SQL replication" methods are more applicable than I thought.... I just want to make sure that my "thinking I know what I'm doing" doesn't get in the way of me actually learning something ;)

Hey Grand Master T,

I was just funnin' ya.

The trigger schedule, auth, etc is set by SMTP Connector configured on
the Exchange Server for the domains you want to grab.

Merry Christmas

Well, I didn't say "dumb thing," I just questioned it's real
value-- lemme
ask; how do you specifiy when the ATRN command runs?  How do
manage how the
internal mail server knows to go out and get the data?

I said I wanted to, but Tor said it was a dumb thing.
