You may have noticed my email bouncing since 11am yesterday morning. That is because my ISP was shut down by Bell Nexxia for failing to pay their million dollar bill from 3 years ago. Anyhow their services have resumed but I am in the processes of moving my business connection (this one) over to a more reputable ISP so you may see my email bouncing again for a day or two next week.

Exchange is on a member server behind ISA. Internal DNS is on the DC and it uses my ISP's DNS as forwarders. My external DNS is resolved at NetSol. I believe it's got something to do with the way I published the Exchange. There's contradicting articles out there. One says you just use the "Publish a mail server" task and another says you need to do the "Inbound SMTP", "Outbound SMTP" and "Outbound DNS" rules. First didn't work (for incoming) so I used the second one. I thought that was working but now it appears it wasn't. For some reason though, it was working every once in a while. I could send myself e-mails from Yahoo but not from MSN, for example. Stupid me I wasn't watching the alerts. The exact phrasing of the alert is: "Server publishing rule (Inbound SMTP) that maps <mail server IP>:25 TCP to <external ISA IP>:25 for protocol [SMTP Server] was unable to bind a socket for the server. The server publishing rule cannot be applied. The failure is due to error: 0x80070034." Couldn't find anything about the error at M$. And then there's all those detected "all port scan attacks" from my internal DC. I guess I should just turn the "Intrusion detection" off. Anyway, I think Jim's right: I should start from scratch and do one thing at the time. Can anyone tell me what the best article about publishing Exchange is? (Including RPC over HTTP) Thanks guys.
