SMTP Forwarding for External & Internal Mail - 15.Sep.2008 2:02:45 PM

Hi,

I need to setup and configure a new SMTP coneector in exchange 2007. Creating the connector wasn't the problem.

According to these instructions:

http://www.shudnow.net/2008/08/21/how-anonymous-relay-works-in-exchange-2007/

I should be able to run this command in the power shell:

Get-ReceiveConnector "LISTSERV SMTP FWD" | Add-ADPermission -User "NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON" -ExtendedRights "Ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

But I keep getting the following error (or permutations thereof).

PS C:\Documents and Settings\netadmin> GetReceiveConnector "LISTSERV SMTP FWD"|Add-ADPermission -User "NT AUTHORITY\ANON
YMOUS LOGON" -ExtendedRights "Ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

The term 'GetReceiveConnector' is not recognized as a cmdlet, function, operable program, or script file. Verify the term and try again.
At line:1 char:20
+ GetReceiveConnector <<<< "LISTSERV SMTP FWD"|Add-ADPermission -User "NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON" -ExtendedRights "
Ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

PS C:\Documents and Settings\netadmin> GetReceiveConnector"LISTSERV SMTP FWD"|Add-ADPermission -User "NT AUTHORITY\ANONY
MOUS LOGON" -ExtendedRights "Ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

s-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

PS C:\Documents and Settings\netadmin> GetReceiveConnector"LISTSERV SMTP FWD" |Add-ADPermission -User "NT AUTHORITY\ANON
YMOUS LOGON" -ExtendedRights "Ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

+ GetReceiveConnector"LISTSERV SMTP FWD" <<<< |Add-ADPermission -User "NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON" -ExtendedRights "
Ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

PS C:\Documents and Settings\netadmin>

Each time, the Line and Char noted refers to "whitespace." Each time I ran the command (to produce the errors above) I manually entered the string, but left out the offending space... then the next whitespace, etc...

You can see the results...

Can anyone please explain to me what I'm doing wrong here? I really need to get this system setup and running.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You should use get-receiveconnector instead of without the "-" sign.

Hi jveldh,

Thanks for answering my post.

Already tried that since my first post here: (no hyphen)

PS C:\Documents and Settings\netadmin> Get ReceiveConnector "LISTSERV SMTP FWD" | Add-ADPermission -User "NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON" -ExtendedRights "Ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

The term 'Get ReceiveConnector' is not recognized as a cmdlet, function,
operable program, or script file. Verify the term and try again.

I also tried this: (no whitespace)

PS C:\Documents and Settings\netadmin> GetReceiveConnector "LISTSERV SMTP FWD" | Add-ADPermission -User "NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS
LOGON" -ExtendedRights
"Ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

The term 'GetReceiveConnector' is not recognized as a cmdlet, function,
operable program, or script file. Verify the term and try again.

And when I run the command as spelled in their own bloody help pages, without arguments, I get:

PS C:\Documents and Settings\netadmin> Get-ReceiveConnector

The term 'Get-ReceiveConnector' is not recognized as a cmdlet, function,
operable program, or script file. Verify the term and try again.

All this, of course, is run through their windows "power" shell.

Of course Power Shell doesn't recognize the command.

It has to be run in the Exchange Management Shell...

Now that's been established, what's the point of this power shell anyway?
