Hello All,
I am new to Exchange 2010, and have a few questions. I successfully migrated all users' E2003 mailboxes to E2010.
I want to start moving all the dependencies over from E2003 to E2010 such as SMTP relay. We are using a 3rd party external spam filtering service to relay good\safe email to our Exchange server.
As everyone knows, in E2003, we can add trusted IP Hosts\Networks via the SMTP VS connector. But in E2010, it does not use the IIS-SMTP service to make this happen. It uses the "ReceiveConnector" and "SendConnector". Given that our 3rd part spam service sends up a list of IP Hosts\Networks for relaying, is it safe to assume the following per the MS instructions:
1. Add an additional IP address to the E2010 server (Is this as simple as adding another IP on the LAN interface?)
2. How do you specify "networks" for the "-RemoteIPRanges" parameter? Would I do the following:
New-ReceiveConnector -Name RelayConnector -usage Custom -Bindings ’Additonal-IP-For-E2010:25′ -fqdn e2010.company.com -RemoteIPRanges 192.168.1.100 255.255.255.0 -serverex2010 -permissiongroups AnonymousUsers
Get-ReceiveConnector RelayConnector | Add-ADPermission -User “NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON” -ExtendedRights “ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient”
3. Is #2 is true, and I have let's say 12 networks to add as SMTP Relay networks, do I have to execute the above commands 12 times?
4. This is probably off topic but is there any documentation that has instructions on how to remove an E2003 server from the Organization to only have the E2010 server?
Any help would fantastic!
Thanks guys!
