FAQ: How To Setup Exchange Server 2000 or 2003

This FAQ is divided into 2 sections:
Section A: eXchange POP3 To Exchange Server.
Section B: Exchange Server To eXchange POP3.
Section A: eXchange POP3 To Exchange Server
Section A deals with configuring Exchange Server and eXchange POP3 so that eXchange POP3 can send messages that it
has downloaded to Exchange Server.
STEP A.1: Start Exchange System Manager.

From your Windows Start Menu, select:
Start Programs Microsoft Exchange System Manager
STEP A.2: Setting Default SMTP Recipient.

In Exchange Server you will have to give all the clients SMTP type addresses which match their
Internet email addresses. For example say a user is known as john@acme.com on the Internet, then the Internet address is
john@acme.com for the Exchange Client.
To make sure the Virtual SMTP Server accepts messages
for your domain you must modify the default SMTP address. To do so follow these steps.
In the Microsoft Exchange Systems Manager select:
Recipients Recipient Policies
In the details pane, using your mouse's RIGHT BUTTON right-click Default Policy and then click Properties.
STEP A.3: Email Addresses.

Click the E-Mail Addresses tab.
Under Generation rules, select SMTP, and then click Edit.
The SMTP Address Properties dialog will appear.
In Address, type the new default SMTP recipient address that
is in the form: @yourdomain.
Click OK to exit the SMTP Address Properties dialog and then Click OK to exit the Default Policy Properties dialog.
STEP A.4: Default SMTP Virtual Server.

From Microsoft Exchange Service Manager select:
Servers your exchange server Protocols SMTP Default SMTP Virtual Server
Using your mouse's RIGHT BUTTON right-click Default SMTP Virtual Server. Then select Properties from the popup menu.
STEP A.5: General Tab.

Parameter A
Make note of the IP address shown in the IP Address field. The value will either be an IP address (example: 192.168.0.4)
or be 'All Unassigned'. You will need to know this value later when configuring eXchange POP3.
Click OK.
STEP A.6: Configure eXchange POP3.

Now run eXchange POP3 and select:
eXchange POP3 Configuration Exchange Connection
IP Address or TCP/IP Host Name: Enter the IP address you noted in STEP A.5 (Parameter A)
If the value was
'All Unassigned' then enter the host name or IP address of the computer running Exchange Server.
Exchange's SMTP server listens on port: Enter 25.
Click the Save button on the toolbar.
Section B: Exchange Server To eXchange POP3
Section B deals with configuring Exchange Server and eXchange POP3 so that Exchange Server can send its Internet-bound messages to the
Internet through eXchange POP3. If eXchange POP3 is handling your dial-up connection then you need to send your
Internet-bound messages from Exchange Server through eXchange POP3. If you are using a dedicated connection
or if you are using a proxy server to handle your
dial-up (i.e. eXchange POP3 does not handle dial-up) then you do not need to send your Internet-bound messages
through eXchange POP3 but you still can.
Note: Exchange Small Business Server; If you are sending outbound messages to eXchange POP3 and you do not see any of your messages in the Message Log on eXchange POP3
please check to see if there is a SMTP Connector installed in your Exchange System Manager under the Connector branch. You can either remove the SMTP Connector or edit the properties so that it Forwards
all messages to the IP address of the eXchange POP3 machine. When entering an IP address you must enclose it in square brackets []
STEP B.1: Start Exchange System Manager.

From your Windows Start Menu, select:
Start Programs Microsoft Exchange System Manager
STEP B.2: Default SMTP Virtual Server.

From Microsoft Exchange Service Manager select:

STEP B.4: Outbound Connections.

Parameter B
Set the port number that eXchange POP3 will be listening on for email connections from Exchange Server.
Exchange Server and eXchange POP3 running on SAME computer:
Set the TCP Port to 8025 as not to conflict with port 25, which is typically used by Exchange Server.
Exchange Server and eXchange POP3 running on DIFFERENT computers:
Set the TCP Port to 25 (default).
Click OK.
STEP B.5: Advanced Delivery.

At this point you should be back to the Delivery property page. Click the Advanced button on this page.

The dialog determines where Exchange Server sends it Internet messages.
In the Smart Host field enter the host name or IP address of the computer where eXchange POP3 is running.
NOTE: If you enter an IP address you must enclose it in square brackets [].
For example if the IP address is 192.168.0.4 then enter [192.168.0.4].
Click OK.
Click OK to save your changes and exit the Default SMTP Virtual Server Properties dialog.
STEP B.6: Configure eXchange POP3.

Now run eXchange POP3 and select:
eXchange POP3 Configuration Exchange Connection
Listen for Exchange SMTP connections on port: Enter the value you sent in
STEP B.4 for TCP Port (Parameter B).
Click the Save button on the toolbar.
